RISOn the necessity of light transport simulation in scintillators
In this study, the light transport simulation in scintillators is introduced, the wavelength-dependencies in the process are taken into account, the effect of different shapes/lengths of lightguides on the response of the ...
Light transport feature for SCINFUL
An extended version of the scintillator response function prediction code SCINFUL has been developed by incorporating PHOTRACK, a Monte Carlo light transport code. Comparisons of calculated and experimental results for ...
Modelling boron-lined proportional counter response to neutrons
The detailed Monte Carlo simulation of a boron-lined proportional counter response to a neutron source has been presented. The MCNP4C and experimental data on different source–moderator geometries have been given for ...
NE213/BC501A scintillator−lightguide assembly response to 241Am−Be neutrons: An MCNPX−PHOTRACK hybrid code simulation
The response of an NE213 (or its BICRON equivalent, BC501A) scintillator attached to different sizes of polished/painted lightguides when exposed to 241Am–Be neutrons has been simulated. This kind of simulation basically ...
Calibration Constant of a Silver Activated Geiger Counter Used for Neutron Efficiency Measurements in Plasma Focus Devices: Theoretical vs. Experimental Studies
The silver activated Geiger counters are frequently used for measuring pulsed neutron fluxes especially in plasma focus devices. These counters basically utilize a Geiger-Mueller (GM) counter surrounded by a silver layer ...
Modelling NE213 scintillator response to neutrons using an MCNPX-PHOTRACK hybrid code
This paper reports on how to generate the response function of an NE213 scintillator when exposed to mono-energetic neutrons using the PTRAC card of the MCNPX code. The light transport part of the simulation has been ...
