SREFT-TPC: Simulations and analysis software

ORAL

Abstract

Spatially resolved fission tracker (SREFT) is a newly developed Time Projection Chamber (TPC) at Los Alamos National Laboratory, aimed to measure neutron-induced fission and neutron-induced charged particle reactions. TPC provides 3D-imaging of charged particles and allows event by event reconstruction of reaction vertex. A detailed simulation has been developed to understand the expected performance and to optimize the operating conditions for SREFT. To interpret the simulation results, analysis codes have been developed. I will discuss the SREFT simulations and performance of analysis codes on simulated as well as preliminary data.
