Beamline Simulation for the NNBAR Experiment at the European Spallation Source
Paper in proceeding, 2022
We have developed a sampling method for beamline simulations for the proposed NNBAR experiment at the European Spallation Source. The method is based on probability density evaluation and duct source biasing and enables the simulations of the entire NNBAR beamline with high statistics while also preserving correlations of the neutron tracks. Future efforts will focus on employing these methods for the investigation of the required thickness of the shielding for the NNBAR experiment and the estimation of the background that will reach the annihilation detector at the end of the beamline.
