“…As the measurements take about a day, the intensity uncertainties are high, and angular distributions must be corrected for, we no longer perform these regularly. The 27 Al(p,γ) 28 Si reaction has many resonances, however only few have been measured extensively, e.g., at E p = 992 keV [19]. There are also several resonant proton capture reactions on other light isotopes, e.g., on 23 Na, 39 K, 11 B, 7 Li [20,21,22], and 13 C [23].…”

The full-energy-peak efficiency of HPGe detectors at γ-ray energies around 10 MeV is not easily accessible with experimental methods. Monte-Carlo simulations with Geant4 can provide these efficiencies. G4Horus is a ready-to-use Geant4 application for the HORUS HPGe-detector array. Users can configure the modular parts to match their experiment with minimal knowledge of the simulation software and limited time commitment. In our case, knowing and implementing the geometry with high precision is the biggest challenge. To implement the different target chambers, we transform the existing CAD models to Geant4 geometry with CADMesh. We also found a large discrepancy between experimental and simulated efficiency for some older HPGe detectors, which could be remedied by introducing a large dead region around the inner core. This project is open source and available from https://github.com/janmayer/G4Horus [1]. We invite everyone to adapt the project or adopt parts of the code for other projects.

The nucleus 23Na has been investigated by studying the primary 7-rays emitted from 53 keV neutron capture in it using a high resolution and high efficiency (100%) HPGe detector and NaI(T1) detector for anti-Compton. 24 primary 7-rays were placed in the 24Na, in which 3 primary 7-rays were new ones from a (n,7) reaction, and reported for the first time. In order to obtain an exact energy calibration within 7 MeV, 56Fe(n,7)57Fe reaction was used at thermal neutron energy. Intensity calibration was obtained from the 27Al(p,7)28Si reaction at Ep 2046 keV. The neutron binding energy of 24Na was determined to be 6959.75 keV.
