Experimental validation of a Monte Carlo based toolbox for self-powered neutron and gamma detector simulation in the OSIRIS MTR

International audience; A numerical toolbox based on Monte Carlo calculations for self-powered neutron and gamma detector design, simulation and operation has been developed in order to save operators numerous and fastidious calibration tests. The experimental validation of this numerical toolbox, called MATiSSe', in the OSIRIS Material Testing Reactor is fully detailed in the paper. C/E comparisons presuppose promising future application for the numerical toolbox.
