Validation of neutrons in Geant4 using TARC data: production, interaction and transportation

The TARC (Transumatation by Adiabatic Resonance Crossing) experiment has been simulated with the Geant4 toolkit. The experiment measured neutron production from 2.5 GeV/c and 3.5 GeV/c protons incident on high purity lead. The Geant4 simulation utilised either the Bertini or Binary nuclear cascade m...

description The TARC (Transumatation by Adiabatic Resonance Crossing) experiment has been simulated with the Geant4 toolkit. The experiment measured neutron production from 2.5 GeV/c and 3.5 GeV/c protons incident on high purity lead. The Geant4 simulation utilised either the Bertini or Binary nuclear cascade models together with the low energy Neutron_HP extension. The neutron time-energy correlation, absolute fluence spectrum, and radial fluences are compared between data and simulation. Recent improvements to the PreCompound and De-excitation modules within Geant4 are presented and their influence on the TARC simulation demonstrated. Overall the Geant4 simulation reproduces the TARC data.
