Abstract

The NArCoS project aims to develop a novel detection system for simultaneously identifying neutrons and light-charged particles with high angular and energy resolution. This system uses advanced EJ-276G plastic scintillators and SiPM photosensors as the core detection units in a segmented multidetector. In this study, we analyzed simulated data of two geometric configurations using the GEANT4 toolkit to assess cross-talk probability in relation to neutron energy and detection threshold. This research served as a preliminary step for the CROSSTEST experiment.
