Abstract

An extension to the GEANT software package is presented, which introduces spin for elastic n-p scattering in the 1–500 MeV energy range. With this extension, the asymmetry due to the analyzing power of the mentioned interaction can be simulated, and is applied in the optimization of the figure-of-merit of a neutron polarimeter.
