Table 1 Comparison of summed count rate in cnts s\(^{-1}\) across all six cavities for the 6-NM-64 benchmark model (Fig. 1a), the 6-NM-64 equivalent cavity model (Fig. 1b shows an example single cavity) and the cavity model with the BP28-BF\(_3\) detectors replaced with 1, 7 and 19 PTI-204 BCS detector(s) per cavity (Fig. 2a,c,e shows the 1, 7 and 19 detector configurations, respectively).
