摘要： 利用塑料闪烁体探测器开展了两种中子/伽马（n/γ）甄别方法研究。塑料闪烁体的尺寸为直径2英寸、长2英寸。以241Am-Be源作为中子伽马混合源，分别用线性延迟法和长短积分时间窗的方法对塑料闪烁体探测器进行n/γ甄别性能研究。利用PSD（脉冲形状甄别）图及计算得出的FOM（品质因子），比较了这两种方法的n/γ甄别效果。结果表明：线性延迟法的甄别效果较差，长短积分时间窗的方法甄别效果较好，当积分时间窗的长门为400ns，短门为60ns时，塑料闪烁体探测器EJ276的n/γ甄别效果最好且n/γ甄别的误判率最低。

Abstract: Research of two discrimination methods on neutron and gamma ray has been carried out using a plastic scintillator detector EJ276 with 2 inches in diameter and 2 inches in length.In the mixed radiation field of neutron and gamma，which is generated by 241Am-Be，neutron/gamma discrimination performance of the plastic scintillator detector was studied by the linear delay method and the long and short integral time window method，respectively.The neutron/gamma discrimination effect between these two methods was compared via PSD（Pulse Shape Discrimination)diagram and FOM（Figure of Merit).The result shows that the method of charge comparison on neutron/gamma discrimination is better than the method of linear delay.And when it’s of 400 ns long gate and 60 ns short gate in the charge comparison，EJ276 has the best discrimination on neutron/gamma with lowest misjudgment ratio.

Key words: Neutron/gamma discrimination, Pulse shape discrimination, The plastic scintillator detector, The linear delay method, The long and short integral time window method, Figure of merit
