Abstract
Design studies of large high resolution gamma-ray spectrometer systems employing multiple sensors are greatly facilitated by the use of computer simulation techniques. A study has been made by interfacing a detector geometry code with the EGS-3 version of the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center Monte-Carlo Code which has been modified to run on our VAX computer. The detector responses have been simulated for input photons with energies between 0.1 and 10 MeV. Examples are given to illustrate the performance of complex sensor arrays with different configurations of the anticoincidence system. Of particular interest is a design composed of an array of 7 detector elements each consisting of a thin planar Ge (1 cm thick) detector mounted in front of and in tandem with a large coaxial Ge detector.
