Abstract
Gadolinium Aluminum Gallium Garnet, also known as GAGG for short, is a scintillating crystal used in the neutrino detector for the $vSOL$ collaboration project. While the ability of this material to be able to detect and be used as a gamma and charged particle detector is apparent, its use as a neutron detector has been relatively unexplored specifically using a multi-pulse method with events from the neutron capture within the gadolinium of the crystal itself. In this paper, I will explore GAGG as a possible neutron detector with both simulations and lab studies, using this multi-pulse technique and present my findings and analysis on its viability as a possible multi-use detector.
