nrCascadeSim - A simulation tool for nuclear recoil cascades resulting from neutron capture

نویسندگان

چکیده

Neutron capture-induced nuclear recoils have emerged as an important tool for detector calibrations in direct dark matter detection and coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CE${\nu}$NS). $\texttt{nrCascadeSim}$ is a command-line generating simulation data energy deposits resulting from neutron capture on pure materials. Presently, silicon, germanium, neon, argon are supported. While the software was developed solid state calibration, it can be used any application which requires simulated recoil data.

A Monte Carlo study of SPECT in boron neutron capture therapy for a heterogeneous human phantom

Background: Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a binary radiotherapy combining biochemical targeting with neutron irradiation. However, monitoring the boron distribution is a fundamental problem in BNCT. Prompt gamma rays emitted by boron capture reaction can be used to address the issue. Materials and Methods: The general-purpose Monte Carlo toolkits Geant4 and MCNP were used for the simu...
