Besides creating a modern and comprehensive catalogue of (n,n’γ) reactions another major objective is to optimize the instrument design with regard to its efficiency and sensitivity. As a certain fraction of fast neutrons always scatters from the sample towards the high-purity germanium (HPGe) detector, a filter material must be placed in the collimation tract of the outer shielding to reduce undesired background as well as to prevent saturation of the detector due to higher gamma-ray fluxes in thick samples.In this talk, originally intended to be held at the 2nd PhD days 2022, the final results of filter simulations performed with MCNP6 are given. Important results from the last talk are repeated. This time a major focus is set on the gamma-ray performance, i.e. how the filter material influences the gamma-ray flux and efficiency. The main results are also illustrated on a print poster that will be presented in the following discussion. 000972036 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF4-632$$a632 - Materials – Quantum, Complex and Functional Materials (POF4-632)$$cPOF4-632$$fPOF IV$$x0 000972036 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF4-6G4$$a6G4 - Jülich Centre for Neutron Research (JCNS) (FZJ) (POF4-6G4)$$cPOF4-6G4$$fPOF IV$$x1 000972036 909CO $$ooai:juser.fz-juelich.de:972036$$pVDB 000972036 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)179117$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b0$$kFZJ 000972036 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF4-632$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF4-630$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF4-600$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF4$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$aDE-HGF$$bForschungsbereich Materie$$lFrom Matter to Materials and Life$$vMaterials – Quantum, Complex and Functional Materials$$x0 000972036 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF4-6G4$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF4-6G0$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF4-600$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF4$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$aDE-HGF$$bForschungsbereich Materie$$lGroßgeräte: Materie$$vJülich Centre for Neutron Research (JCNS) (FZJ)$$x1 000972036 9141_ $$y2023 000972036 9201_ $$0I:(DE-Juel1)JCNS-2-20110106$$kJCNS-2$$lStreumethoden$$x0 000972036 9201_ $$0I:(DE-Juel1)PGI-4-20110106$$kPGI-4$$lStreumethoden$$x1 000972036 9201_ $$0I:(DE-82)080009_20140620$$kJARA-FIT$$lJARA-FIT$$x2 000972036 980__ $$atalk 000972036 980__ $$aVDB 000972036 980__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)JCNS-2-20110106 000972036 980__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)PGI-4-20110106 000972036 980__ $$aI:(DE-82)080009_20140620 000972036 980__ $$aUNRESTRICTED 000972036 981__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)JCNS-2-20110106
