Description
The Noble Element Simulation Technique (NEST) is a toolkit for simulating signals in noble liquid detectors. A variety of models have been developed to simulate ionization and scintillation signals in argon- and xenon-based detectors, trained and benchmarked against a body of data published in rare-event search experiments and dedicated calibration measurements. This presentation will discuss the models developed by NEST and their validation against the existing body of data in argon and xenon detectors.
