The Best Choice of High Purity Germanium (HPGe) Detector
below and are based on some basic concepts about how the detection process works, how gamma rays penetrate materials, and the principles of gamma-ray spectroscopy. Unresolved choice issues can be reduced to a level where they have little or no impact on the resultant performance of the spectrometry system. This document explains how you can easily make a wise, well-informed choice. We assume yo...
متن کاملGamma-ray imaging with coaxial HPGe detector
We report on the first experimental demonstration of Compton imaging of gamma rays with a single coaxial high-purity germanium (HPGe) detector. This imaging capability is realized by two-dimensional segmentation of the outside contact in combination with digital pulse-shape analysis, which enables to image gamma rays in 4p without employing a collimator. We are able to demonstrate the ability t...
متن کاملSurface projection of HPGe- detectors
Several encapsulated single Germanium detectors have been mounted in one unit and integrated in a cryostat, in order to build efficient spectrometers to detect γ radiation emitted by nuclei excited in nuclear reactions. This kind of crystal encapsulation offer advantages compared to standard set-up of HPGedetectors. The basic aim of the following work is to develop a new capsule technology, in ...
متن کاملPosition-sensitive germanium detectors for gamma-ray imaging and spectroscopy
Gamma-ray imaging with position-sensitive germanium detectors offers the advantages of excellent energy resolution, high detection efficiency, and potentially good spatial resolution. The development of the amorphous-semiconductor electrical contact technology for germanium detectors has simplified the production of these position-sensitive detectors and has made possible the use of unique dete...
متن کاملA Comparative Study of Field Gamma-ray Spectrometry by NaI(Tl) and HPGe Detectors in the South Caspian Region
Natural radionuclides present in soil as well as certain anthropogenic radionuclides released to the environment are the major contributors to terrestrial outdoor exposures. In the assessment of human exposures from environmental radioactivity, besides the conventional method of soil and vegetation sampling combined with laboratory based analyses of environmental media, the other choice would b...
