Hello, I’m working on simulations of a plastic scintillation detector and looking at using the most accurate model for the optical surfaces. I have used UNIFIED in the past but would like to explore using the LUT-Davis model as I’ve read it is based on empirical data from scintillator crystals - can anyone tell me if it’s appropriate for use with plastic scintillators?
Thank you,
Carrie
Currently the scintillators there are LUT data in Geant4 are BGO and LYSO.
I think the Davis authors have measured more materials, and these might be included in GATE. Look for follow-up papers to the ones mentioned in the Book For Application Developers.
