High purity germanium detector in gamma-ray spectrometry
We measured full energy peak efficiency of High-Purity Germanium detector which is important for gamma-ray spectrometry experiments. A brief but very effective description on the basic formation of detector crystal and creation of signal pulse has been presented here. This article is furnished in such a way that the contents find useful and interesting to physics and electronics students, educa...
متن کاملPerformance of a Low-Background High Purity Germanium Detector with a Novel EndCap
Low background HPGe detectors have been used for many years in the measurement of low activities of radionuclides in various materials. With the increased importance of nuclear forensics, low background detectors are in increasing demand. The endcap and other materials used in low background detector construction must be selected to have the lowest activity possible. In some cases, the material...
متن کاملThe 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 polarimetry using a position sensitive germanium detector
Imaging gamma-ray detectors make sensitive polarimeters in the Compton energy regime by measuring the scatter direction of gamma-rays. The principle is to capitalize on the angular dependence of the Compton scattering cross section to polarized gamma rays and measure the distribution of scatter directions within the detector. This technique is effective in a double-sided germanium detector betw...
متن کاملCalibration of the High Purity Germanium Gamma-Ray Spectrometer in CERT,ABU Zaria, Nigeria
Gamma-ray spectrometry is a very powerful tool for radioactivity measurements. The gamma-ray spectrometer laboratory in Centre for Energy Research and Training (CERT), Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, Nigeria is accredited to perform measurements of radioactive content of samples collected from the environment, food chain or industrial products with the aid of a high resolution HPGe detector. Fo...
