A Monte Carlo Simulation for the X-ray Detection Efficiency of a Multi-Cell Proportional Counter

The X-ray astronomy team of the Korea Astronomy Observatory (KAO) is planning to develop a multi-cell proportional counter, adopting an anti-coincidence method to reduce its internal background. We have developed a Monte Carlo code to determine the X-ray detection efficiency of the counter. As a che...
