3. Peak efficiency calculation<br />

<strong>JAEA</strong>-<strong>Conf</strong> <strong>2011</strong>-<strong>002</strong><br />

The peak efficiency of the BGO detector, which is required for the accurate determination of the DDX (Double<br />

Differential Cross Sections), was also investigated in terms of nuclear reactions and multiple Coulomb<br />

scattering.<br />

Since the yield obtained from the experiments is less than the incident on the detector, the Peak efficiency<br />

needs to be corrected; the yield obtained from the experiments is divided on true (total) yield:<br />

Were NPeak is the Yield obtained from the experiments and the NTotal is the true yield.<br />

Fig. 4. Peak efficiency of the BGO detector.<br />

In Fig. 4 are shown the peak efficiency curves of a BGO crystal to charged particles as the function of particle<br />

energy. They were calculated by a Monte Carlo procedure, which takes multiple coulomb scattering and<br />

nuclear reactions into consideration.
