Scientific paper

The detection system of The Laboratory for Experimental Nuclear Astrophysics is described, including methods for measuring weak capture-γ-ray resonances. Improved γγ-coincidence techniques are detailed, as well as the reduction of cosmic muon-induced background in the energy region of E=0.6 9.0MeV by the use of compact cosmic muon anti-coincidence shields. These techniques reduced background count rates in the regions of E=0.6 3.0 and 3.0 9.0 MeV with respect to unshielded singles count rates by factors of 3600 and 21, respectively.
