Abstract
The response of a large NaI(Tl) total absorption spectrometer for β-decay studies is investigated.The accuracy of Monte Carlo simulations taking into account the light yield non-proportionality of NaI(Tl) and the detailed geometry is assessed through comparison with spectra measured for several radioactive sources.
