ERNIE: A Reactor Antineutrino Inverse Beta Decay Event Generator
arXiv:2311.05898 · doi:10.1016/j.cpc.2022.108543
Abstract
We present ERNIE, a computer program which generates nuclear reactor electron antineutrinos and inverse beta decay events induced by these particles, using the Monte-Carlo method. The program allows the usage of different antineutrino energy spectra models and can simulate the time evolution of the overall antineutrino spectrum because of the burn-up effect. The output of the program can readily be used in detector simulations made with eg. GEANT 4.
