The neutron is a valuable tool in many fields of science due to its properties regarding electric charge and magnetic moment. However, these properties also makes it difficult to detect. Through simulation one can optimize the detector environment to best correspond with the needs for a specific experiment. In this project, a detector environment is simulated, consisting of a neutron and gamma point source and one detector for each type of particle. The simulated results were in good agreement with the underlying theory and the simulation can, therefore, be used in future work.
