Objectives:
This project aims to determine the most efficient scintillator option for the ROSSPADs, including 6Li/CLLBc and others. Additionally, it seeks to identify the optimal scintillator geometry, considering options such as single-layer, multi-layer, rectangle, cylindrical, cube, and more.
Key Tasks:
Perform modelling and geometry optimisation using Geant4 to assess:
- Light collection efficiency
- Neutron detection efficiency
- Gamma-ray detection efficiency
Note: Environmental factors, source(s) properties, and flux data will be provided by MSc Project #2, focused on environmental modelling and Analysis.
By refining the scintillator selection and geometry, this project aims to enhance the performance of the CLUGAS Compact Gamma-ray and Neutron Counter, contributing to more accurate radiation detection and measurement.
