Flux measurement of fast neutrons in the Gran Sasso underground laboratory

Abstract Neutron energy spectrum for energies extending up to 15 MeV has been measured in the Hall A of INFN Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso in Italy, by using a $$\mathrm {1.5~m^3}$$ 1.5m3 stainless-steel tank filled with 1.2 ton Gd-doped liquid scintillator. A two-pulse signature, due to proto...
