Abstract The linear response is the key property employed by a radiation detector to determine the accurate intensity of a pulse radiation field. In this study, we investigated the high fluence rate response behavior of a LaBr3 scintillator. We used a high-intensity pulsed X-ray source called “QiangGuang-I” which could produce an X-ray pulse with a total dose of 100 Gy, full width at half maximum of 20 ± 5 ns, and an average energy of 1 MeV, to test the linear response of the LaBr3 scintillator. The Lissajous figure method was used in this experiment. The results showed that the fluence rate linear response limit was more than 1.8 × 1020 MeV/(cm2·s).
