英文摘要	The generation of real nuclear pulse signals need a detector and a radiation source. In order to replace some expensive detectors or harmful radiation sources, and precisely evaluate a nuclear detection sys-tem, a monte Carlo virtual detector (MCVD) which could simulate different types of detectors and radi-ation sources was designed to generate nuclear pulse signals. The generated nuclear pulse signals were verified in amplitudes and time intervals, and were applied to test the performance of a multi-channel pulse amplitude analyzer. The results showed that the amplitudes were proportional to the correspond-ing energies, the time intervals between two consecutive pulses obeyed an exponential distribution, and the generated energy spectrum not only included the amplitude information of the full-energy peak, but also included the amplitude information of the Compton plateau and backscatter peak (scattered signals), etc. Thus, the generated nuclear pulse signals have the physical significance of reflecting all kinds of inter-action between the ray and the matters in real detector, and can more precisely evaluate nuclear detec-tion systems.
