Simulation of production of the cosmogenic radionuclides in loess

Speaker

Nikola Veselinovic

Description

Development of a Geant4 application which models propagation and interaction of cosmic rays with the soil - loess, including the simulation of creation of cosmogenic radionuclides in soil is reported. CORSIKA is used to simulate the propagation of cosmic rays through atmosphere to the ground. The distribution of concentration of produced radionuclides by depth from simulation is presented thus allowing alternative method of study loess geomorfology but also to study cosmic ray flux modulated by the sun activity on long-term scale. The possibility of detection using laboratory equipment of these cosmogenic radionuclides created in soil is discussed.
