Abstract

A Monte Carlo simulation technique using GEANT4 has been developed to simulate the response function and self-activity of LaBr₃:Ce detector. The internal activity of the LaBr₃:Ce crystal is due to the presence of an unstable isotope, ¹³⁸La and the contamination with ²²⁷Ac element. The simulation procedure and the preliminary result will present in the meeting
