Abstract:
Bonner Sphere Spectrometers (BSS) are widely used for neutron spectrometry. Spectra are obtained by unfolding detector readings. In this work, a Python Graphical User Interface Application (GUI/App) for spectrum unfolding is presented; SpecUnPy. In this App, the user can choose three unfolding algorithms: SPUNIT/MLEM/GRAVEL. There is no limit for energy bins or detectors and after unfolding, a ".xlsx" file and a graphical comparison can be downloaded. This paper presents SpecunPy and some tests performed to validate it.
