X-Ray Imaging with a Silicon Microstrip Detector
A single photon counting X-ray imaging system, with possible applications to dual energy mammography and angiography, is presented. A silicon microstrip detector with 100 mm pitch strips is coupled to RX64 ASICs, each of them including 64 channels of preamplifier, shaper, discriminator and scaler. The system has low noise, good spatial resolution and high counting rate capability. Results on en...
متن کاملThe feasibility of using microstrip gas detector as radon detector for earthquake prediction
In the last decade, several studies have concluded that elevated concentrations of radon gas in soil or groundwater could be the sign of an imminent earthquake. It is believed that in case of sudden movement of rocks before earthquake, radon is released from the depth of ground and reached the surface. In this way, by measuring Radon concentration change, earthquake prediction is possible. In t...
متن کاملMEASUREMENT OF DIAGNOSTIC X-RAY SPECTRA USING CdZnTe DETECTOR
INTRODUCTION We directly measured diagnostic X-ray photon spectra produced by a single-phase 2-pulse diagnostic X-ray unit driven at 50 to 100 kV and a few mA(1), a mammographic X-ray unit at 25 to 32 kV and 3 times of 80 mAs(2) and an X-ray computed tomography (CT) scanner at 120 kV and 3 mA(3) have been analyzed. Since detected spectra were distorted by the response of CdZnTe(CZT) detector an...
متن کاملMany-electron singularity in X-ray photoemission and X-ray line spectra from metals
It is pointed out that the spectra of x-ray induced fast photoelectrons from metal should have a characteristic skew line shape resulting from Kondo-like manyelectron interactions of the metallic conduction electrons with the accompanying deep hole in the final state. The same line shape should also occur for the discrete line spectra of x-rays emitted from metals. This mechanism could account ...
متن کاملMonte Carlo simulation of the X-ray response of a germanium microstrip detector with energy and position resolution
We present Monte Carlo computer simulations of the X-ray response of a micro-strip germanium detector over the energy range 30}100 keV. The detector consists of a linear array of lithographically de"ned 150 lm wide strips on a high purity monolithic germanium crystal of 6 mm thickness. The simulation code is divided into two parts. We "rst consider a 10 lm wide X-ray beam striking the detector ...
