摘要：
The polystyrene (PS)-based scintillator SCSN38, pure PS and pure polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) have been irradiated with a beam of fast neutrons and with reactor neutrons. The radiation-induced permanent optical absorption coefficients after total annealing in air are compared with data for gamma irradiations. The strong differences might be due to the high linear energy transfer (LET) of the recoil protons elastically scattered by the neutrons. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
