Light scattering in the plastic scintillator

Optical losses in a standard composition plastic scintillator (PS) (98.5 %PST + 1.5 p-TP + 0.02 % POPOP) have been analyzed numerically. The PS scattering properties have been studied in experiment for PS samples manufactured under two different large-size block polymerization conditions. The total...
