在优化用于暗物质搜索的双相惰性气体探测器和用于无中微子双β衰变探测的高压氙TPC时，对电致发光的良好理解是一个先决条件。利用Magboltz和加菲猫程序开发了一个计算电子与氖、氩、氪和氙碰撞发光的模拟工具包。计算的激发和电致发光效率，电致发光产率和相关的统计波动作为电场的函数。与实验和Monte Carlo模拟已获得良好的协议。
A good understanding of electroluminescence is a prerequisite when optimising double-phase noble gas detectors for Dark Matter searches and high-pressure xenon TPCs for neutrinoless double beta decay detection. A simulation toolkit for calculating the emission of light through electron impact on neon, argon, krypton and xenon has been developed using the Magboltz and Garfield programs. Calculated excitation and electroluminescence efficiencies, electroluminescence yield and associated statistical fluctuations are presented as a function of electric field. Good agreement with experiment and with Monte Carlo simulations has been obtained.
