  • Pair production treatments for deterministic pulse-height distribution simulations

    Creator:
    MacQuigg, Michael R.
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents methods for treating annihilation photon pairs in deterministic pulse height distribution (PHD) simulations. The methods are applied in PHD simulations for monoenergtic sources of 1.6 and 2.6 MeV photons incident on 5 and 10 cm 1-D slabs of germanium, sodium iodide, and lead and the results are...

  • Calculation of Pulse height distributions from deterministic transport simulations

    Creator:
    Benz, Jacob M.
    Abstract:
    In source-detector radiation transport simulations, pulse height distributions are a useful metric in assessing the effectiveness of nuclear instrumentation. In the area of spectroscopy, pulse height distributions are used to identify an unknown source. It is widely believed that pulse height distributions cannot be created using deterministic methods. This quantity...
