Abstract：
The light output functions for protons of ST-401 and BC-408 plastic scintillators were measured using white neutron source produced by the ⁹Be(d, n) ¹⁰B reaction at the HI-13 Tandem Accelerator at China Institute of Atomic Energy (CIAE). The LOFs of plastic
scintillators for protons in the energy range of 0.5—16.5 MeV were obtained by the time-of-flight (TOF) technique and an iterative procedure. Two parameters (kB and C) were deduced by fitting the experimental data.
