      • k100sim with boron shields: Generated 300M events (130.8 sec of live time) with and without boron shields (1 inch and 2 inch thickness) with walls & floor turned off
        • nCap rate in NaI with no boron shield: 764 Hz
        • nCap rate in NaI with 1“ boron shield: 178.4 Hz
        • nCap rate in NaI with 2” boron shield: 149 Hz
      • Capture rate seems smaller because of no walls and floor. Re-injected jobs with both geometry tuned on.
