Hello everyone, In the MCBEND simulation I've conducted, I have found the dose rate of a gamma source in microSieverts per hour (µSv/h). I also know the distance between the detector and the source. How can I calculate the source activity or strength from this information? Thank you, Best wishes

Hello evryone, In the MCBEND simulation I've conducted, I have found the dose rate of a gamma source in microSieverts per hour (µSv/h). I also know the distance between the detector and the source. How can I calculate the source activity or strength from this information? Thank you, Best wishes

I have compared my simulation results with the experiments I conducted in the laboratory. Here I want to add a background for the graph I obtained from the simulation. Can I do it? I would be very happy if you could help me. I used MCBEND as the simulation program.

I took measurements by placing 137Cs, 60Co, and 133Barium 5 cm away from the detector and simulated this with the MCBEND program. First, I compared the dose rates. Now I want to compare the spectra. I examined similar studies. They explain the way to go, but I am not exactly sure how to do it. I...

I think my code is the same as the environment I have set up. I am investigating the accuracy of the simulation. These are the measurements of my detector and I added my code

yes, I did not scale the data. what I want to do is to make the graphs similar. But I don't know exactly how to make normalization

Got it, thanks. Can you move my question to nuclear engineering section and this is not a homework. Also, I added the necessary graphics for my question as a picture again.

Do I need to apply normalization these two graphs to make them similar to each other and if so, how can I do this? I would be very grateful if you can help me if these results are consistent. I compared the results of the experiment and the results of the mcbend simulation.

One is the results I got with the simulation and the other is the results I got with the real experiment, is it logical for these graphics to be like this? Since my background is not physics, I do not fully master these issues, so I apologise if my questions are absurd.

Yes these values are right.This greaph for Cs-137 and CsI(Tl)

The detector counts for 1 minute, the same way it runs for one minute on MCBEND. Do the results still need to be multiplied by 60?

This result is for CsI(Tl) detector.If I multiply the MCBEND count values and 60*activity,these results don't match but I don't multiply 60 these results almost match.

Actually I first asked this question for MCNP and cylindrical NaI(Tl) detector. However, I lost the usb with some of these data and I need to repeat some experiments. These are my old data. This detector is rectangular prism and the data is for MCBEND.I runned this code for 50000000 particle...

Thank you, but what I want to do in my study is to make the count values and energy values obtained by simulation similar to these values obtained from the experiment.

Thank you very much for the information you provide.These are detector information.I added the data I received and the excel file I prepared for comparison.These are the data I get when I put the source(60 Co) 5 cm away.This source source activity 87357.2 becquerel
