Abstract
A new software suite called BiNDAS has been developed, primarily using $\text{C}^{++}$ , for nuclear spectroscopy data sorting and analysis. In this transaction, we report its application to gamma-ray spectroscopy but it can easily be used for other experiments. Detailed discussions of the new features which include the MAP file, time spectra alignment, ability to define detectors for the 1-D axis of addback spectra, the 2-D axes of coincidence matrix, etc. have been presented. Few examples, showing the use of these features, have also been furnished. The higher speed, ease of use, and flexibility over the programs currently in use come from the utilization of new algorithms and novel approach to the problems. A discussion on AutoCal, part of this suite, has also been presented. It is a GUI-based automatic gamma spectrum calibration software that can automatically search, fit, and assign energy to peaks in the spectra. The suite is expected to significantly reduce data analysis time, while keeping human errors to a minimum.
