Abstract
A simulation study was performed to choose an optimal configuration of a gamma-ray spectrometer consisting of Ge and BGO detectors, which facilitates the identification of prompt gamma rays to ground states emitted following capture reactions of neutrons in the thermal energy region and determination of the reaction cross sections.
