Application and Validation of Geant4 Modeling for Optimization of Complex Structures for Fast Neutron Detection

Creator:

Capps, Jacob W.

Abstract:

Fast neutron detection is important to the detection of illicit nuclear materials and can help prevent those materials from being used or transported without discovery. Previous research has shown that Heavy Oxide Inorganic Scintillator crystals can be used to detect fast neutrons by capitalizing on their high inelastic scattering cross...
