Abstract
A well-type NaI(Tl) detector was modelled and characterised by means of a Monte Carlo simulation, as part of a project to develop a 4πβ (Plastic Scintillator)-4πγ instrument to be used for the primary standardisation of radionuclides at ANSTO. The simulation based on GEANT4 was used to characterise the 4πγ detector in terms of potential dead layer/inactive materials, full energy peak efficiency, coincidence-summing correction, and energy resolution. An excellent agreement was obtained between the simulation results and the experimental measurements. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd.
