文摘

Measurement of photopeak efficiency of a CeBr3 scintillator coupled to a fast PMT. Geometry implemented in the PENELOPE and GEANT4 Monte Carlo codes. Both PENELOPE and GEANT4 reproduce the measured values. Monte Carlo simulations are sensitive to the details of the geometry. Simulations useful for this type of crystal with similar or modified geometries
