NaI(Tl) detector’s model using the MCNP-X code
Keywords:
MCNP-X code, NaI (Tl) detector, Gamma spectrometryAbstract
The Monte Carlo method was used to calculate the photon detection efficiency and energy resolution curves of a planar a 1¾ "x ¼" NaI(Tl) scintillator detector exposed to gamma rays in the energy range from 20 keV to 662 keV. The detector was modeled with the MCNP-X code.References
