Compton scattering sequence reconstruction algorithm for the liquid xenon gamma - ray imaging telescope ( LXeGRIT )
The Liquid Xenon Gamma-Ray Imaging Telescope (LXeGRIT) is a balloon born experiment sensitive to γ–rays in the energy band of 0.2–20 MeV. The main detector is a time projection chamber filled with high purity liquid xenon (LXeTPC), in which the three–dimensional location and energy deposit of individual γ–ray interactions are accurately measured in one homogeneous volume. To determine the γ–ray...
متن کاملGamma Ray Energy Measurement using the Multiple Compton Technique
Modern developments in detector and electronics technology now enable a new generation of gamma ray detectors based on recording each and every energy loss associated with an incident gamma ray. The energy of an incident gamma ray is determined by measuring the positions of the first three interactions, and the energy loss of the first two. The direction of the incident gamma ray is restricted ...
متن کاملCompton Imaging of MeV Gamma-Rays with the Liquid Xenon Gamma-Ray Imaging Telescope (LXeGRIT)
The Liquid Xenon Gamma-Ray Imaging Telescope (LXeGRIT) is the first realization of a liquid xenon time projection chamber for Compton imaging of MeV γ-ray sources in astrophysics. By measuring the energy deposit and the three spatial coordinates of individual γ-ray scattering points, the location of the source in the sky is inferred with Compton kinematics reconstruction. The angular resolution...
متن کاملLinac-based Laser Compton Scattering X-ray and Gamma-ray Sources
Laser Compton scattering (LCS) light sources can provide high-energy photons from keV to MeV range. Many research and development projects of linac-based LCS sources are carried on. For the photon energies of tens keV, linac-based LCS sources realize laboratory-size X-ray sources, of which performance is potentially comparable to 2 generation synchrotron light sources. Linac-based LCS also real...
متن کاملGamma-ray spectral imaging using a single-shutter radiation camera
As part of a program to develop mobile robots for reactor environments, we are developing a radiation-imaging camera capable of operating in medium-intensity ( < 2 R/h), medium-energy ( < 8 MeV) gamma-ray fields . A systematic study of available detectors indicated the advisability of a high-Z scintillator. The raster-scanning camera uses a lead-shielded bismuth germanate (BGO) scmtillator (1 ....
