INVESTIGATION OF SPECTRAL AND LUMINESCENT CHARACTERISTICS OF A SCINTILLATOR BASED ON SINTIN

The paper presents the results of a study of the optical and luminescent properties of a scintillator based on the industrial product sintin with additives. The optimal composition of the scintillator for the sintin solution has been determined. It is expected that the optimization results will be used in the development of a high-mass scintillation detector. The studies were carried out using a PE-3000 UV spectrophotometer and a PerkinElmer LS 55 luminescent spectrometer.
