AbstraktAbstract
For the needs of the development of the antineutrino detector for monitoring of a core of a nuclear reactor, the software for the simulation of interactions of an antineutrino capture products in the detector was developed. For the simulation of interactions of particles with matter, the software uses a Monte-Carlo method implemented in the C++ library Geant4 (see http://geant4.cern.ch). To visualize the results, the C++ library ROOT was used. It is possible to change size and number of strip detectors, thickness of the neutron conversion layer and chemical composition of used materials. Results of the simulations for a particular configurations of scintillating strips manufactured by the ENVINET company were summarized in the research report "Monte Carlo simulation for the detector antineutrinos - Report on activities in 2012", which are annexed to the report on the project TE01020445.
