The target of the ANCHISE project is the development of a new detection system able to detect with high angular and energy resolution neutrons and light-charged particles at the same time. The idea is to use the new-generation of plastic scintillators EJ276-G coupled with a SiPM photosensor as the elementary detection cell of a segmented multidetector. In the present contribution, we analyzed the data obtained simulating two geometrical configurations of the elementary cell with the GEANT4 toolkit, in order to study the cross-talk probability as a function of the incident neutron energy and of the detection threshold. The present study was preparatory for the CROSSTEST experiment.

Abstract
The target of the ANCHISE project is the development of a new detection system able to detect with high angular and energy resolution neutrons and light-charged particles at the same time. The idea is to use the new-generation of plastic scintillators EJ276-G coupled with a SiPM photosensor as the elementary detection cell of a segmented multidetector. In the present contribution, we analyzed the data obtained simulating two geometrical configurations of the elementary cell with the GEANT4 toolkit, in order to study the cross-talk probability as a function of the incident neutron energy and of the detection threshold. The present study was preparatory for the CROSSTEST experiment.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
