Results of the detector location optimisation simulations within the parameterised slab model showing calculated total count rate in cnts s−1 against (a) number of PTI-204 BCS detectors added for all \(t\_gap\) simulations performed and (b) number of 4 atm \(^3\)He and PTI-204 BCS detectors for \(t\_gap\) = 1.25 cm. The dashed horizontal line shows the 6-NM-64 benchmark count rate for comparison. (c) Shows the ratio of \(^3\)He / BCS total count rate against number of detectors for \(t\_gap\) = 1.25 cm.
