Butyl PBD


Butyl PBD or b-PBD is a fluorescent organic compound used in the Liquid Scintillator Neutrino Detector at Los Alamos National Laboratory, USA.
The fluorescent emission of b-PBD is at λem = 364 nm for excitation at λex = 305 nm. As a scintillant in the LSND, it was used at a concentration of 31 mg/l dissolved in mineral oil.
