用于估计闪烁探测器的光输出的简单模型是在一般假设下开发的，并且完全依赖于其光学特性的知识。该模型允许人们轻松地合并与瑞利散射和光子吸收相关的效应。该模型的预测以特定闪烁探测器的蒙特卡罗模拟结果为基准。达到了百分之几的准确度。明确处理基于真实液氩的探测器的情况，并将预测的光输出与测量值进行比较。
A simple model for the estimation of the light yield of a scintillation detector is developed under general assumptions and relying exclusively on the knowledge of its optical properties. The model allows one to easily incorporate effects related to Rayleigh scattering and absorption of the photons. The predictions of the model are benchmarked with the outcomes of Monte Carlo simulations of specific scintillation detectors. An accuracy at the level of few percent is achieved. The case of a real liquid argon based detector is explicitly treated and the predicted light yield is compared with the measured value.
