Abstract

Response function is a fundamental parameter for all detectors in order to analyze the energy distribution of gamma ray which undergoes scattering interaction with the material. The response functions of a 3 in. x 3 in. NaI(Tl) collimated detector for non axis detector-source geometry has been calculated using a Monte Carlo approach from GEANT4 simulation code with 0.662 MeV of mono-energetic of photon gamma ray. Collimated Pb with 4 cm thickness and 2 cm of holes diameter were employed for shielding. The source was assumed as an isotropic point source and it is placed at various positions to the detector axis. The comparison between the measured energy response functions and the simulated energy response functions after normalization were also performed in order to validate the modeling results.
