Abstract

Since 2010, the ensuremath3He crisis has brought the necessity to develop new thermal neutron detectors as an alternative of the tubes based on 3He. A good candidate can be represented by Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) detector, which can detect neutrons if coupled with a suitable neutron converter. This work presents the numerical simulations performed with the GEANT4 toolkit, where the interaction of a thermal neutron beam with the single innovative boron GEM (BGEM) foil has been studied.
