The effect of neutrons on the background of HPGe detectors operating deep underground
The background of a High Purity Germanium (HPGe) detector measured in a deep underground laboratory was investigated analytically and by Monte Carlo simulations using the GEANT4 toolkit. Contributions of different background sources to the experimental γ-ray background were determined. Namely, contr...
