The aim of this study was to detect radon (Rn-222) activity experimentally by measuring the energy of particles in this detector. Count-ADC channel, eta-charge, and dose response values were experimentally obtained using HIPRAD. The radon simulation in the radiation detector was theoretically performed using the Geant4 software package. The obtained radioactive decay, energy generation, energy values, and efficiency values of the simulation were plotted using the root program. The new generation radiation detector proved to have 95% reliability according to the obtained dose response graphs. The experimental and simulation results were found to be compatible with each other and with the radon decays and literature studies.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessRn-222RadiationSemiconductorSilicon detectorGeant4RootArticle10.1016/j.apradiso.2018.01.0162-s2.0-850414259136629360057Q261135WOS:000428823500011Q2
