[ Identification | Description | Input parameters | Links ]

The Detector_pn Component

Block of a attenuating material

Identification

  • Site:
  • Author: Maria Thomsen (mariath@fys.ku.dk)
  • Origin: NBI, KU
  • Date: Jan 24, 2011

Description

A scintillator detector model taking photoabsorption efficiency into account. As such it consitututes a
more physical version of the PSD_monitor. Only direct absorption is taken into account.

Input parameters

Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.
