Simulation of neutron background for DINO Dark Matter search experiment

Description
The goal of the proposed Dark Matter (DM) search experiment DINO (Dark matter@INO) is to search for the Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMP) as candidates of Dark Matter. WIMPs are expected to interact with the detector nuclei via elastic scattering, resulting in nuclear recoils. DINO experiment proposes to use suitable scintillation detectors operated at cryogenic temperature for the detection of recoiling nuclei. Such rare event search needs high sensitivity and complete knowledge about the possible radiation background that can interfere with the experiment
