Near Threshold Pulse Shape Discrimination Techniques in Scintillating CsI(Tl) Crystals
There are recent interests with CsI(Tl) scintillating crystals for Dark Matter experiments. One of the major experimental challenges is to differentiate nuclear recoil signatures from the background β/γ-events due to ambient radioactivity on the basis of their different pulse shapes in the domain where the light output is close to the detection threshold. Using data derived from measurements wi...
متن کاملAn Embedded Microprocessor Design for the Pulse Shape Discrimination of a Plastic Scintillating Neutron Detector
Kaua‘i Community College (Kaua‘i CC) is presently participating in an effort to develop a space industry in Hawai‘i. This effort includes future launches of University of Hawai‘i supported micro-class satellites from the Pacific Missile Range Facility at Barking Sands, Kaua‘i. Kaua‘i CC’s participation is represented by operation and maintenance of a ground station, located on campus, to suppor...
متن کاملRadiation damage in scintillating crystals
Crystal Calorimetry in future high-energy physics experiments faces a new challenge to maintain its precision in a hostile radiation environment. This paper discusses the effects of radiation damage in scintillating crystals, and concludes that the predominant radiation damage effect in crystal scintillators is the radiation-induced absorption, or color center formation, not the loss of scintil...
متن کاملPulse-shape discrimination with PbWO4 crystal scintillators
The light output, α/β ratio, and pulse shape have been investigated at −25◦ C with PbWO4 crystal scintillators undoped, and doped by F, Eu, Mo, Gd and S. The fast 0.01 − 0.06 μs and middle 0.1 − 0.5 μs components of scintillation decay were observed for all the samples. Slow components of scintillation signal with the decay times 1− 3 μs and 13− 28 μs with the total intensity up to ≈ 50% have b...
