Description
A code package for determining response of neutron detector array as well as allowing cross-talks to be studied via neutron tracking will be introduced. An array with spherical geometry having conical shaped detector units is modeled with this code package. This modeling builds detector arrays for any given target detector distance, length of detector and photomultiplier sizes while providing inner gaps among the detectors having optimized empty volumes. Response calculation part of the package is based on NRESP4 and written in C++ using ROOT. The recent ENDF/B-VII Neutron Cross Section Library is also included into the package. An additional Sorter and Cross-talk Analysis Codes provide event-by-event analysis to study the cross-talk events by utilizing bothtotal light output and time-of-flight information as well as detector numbering scheme.
