Space-time photon correlation using a 2-D photon event detector.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A 2-D photon event detector, consisting of a microchannel plate coupled to a resistive anode for position readout, has been used to measure the spatiotemporal correlation of dynamic speckle. In this paper we discuss the implementation of this detector for these measurements and the effect of detector dark count, dead time, spatiotemporal integration, and other inherent biases. Initial results on dynamic speckle produced by a rotating diffuser are presented, and these agree well with theoretical predictions.

First experimental feasibility study of VIPIC: a custom-made detector for X-ray speckle measurements
The Vertically Integrated Photon Imaging Chip (VIPIC) was custom-designed for X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy, an application in which occupancy per pixel is low but high time resolution is needed. VIPIC operates in a sparsified streaming mode in which each detected photon is immediately read out as a time- and position-stamped event. This event stream can be fed directly to an autocorrel...
متن کاملPhoton dosimetry based on selective data sampling for the NaI(TL) detector
Radiation detection is essential for determining of radiation dose. Depend on the detector and dosimetry method, detection process is performed in different levels. Pulse counting is the first level of detection. Typically, the output of a radiation detector for determining value of the radiation dose cannot be used directly. Through changing the response function or the readout detector, is tr...
متن کاملSubmillisecond X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy from a pixel array detector with fast dual gating and no readout dead-time
Small-angle scattering X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (XPCS) studies were performed using a novel photon-counting pixel array detector with dual counters for each pixel. Each counter can be read out independently from the other to ensure there is no readout dead-time between the neighboring frames. A maximum frame rate of 11.8 kHz was achieved. Results on test samples show good agreement...
متن کاملInvestigation of surface and buildup region doses for 6 MV high energy photon beams in the presence of a thermoplastic mask
Background: The accuracy and the reproducibility of radiotherapy can be provided by using immobilization devices such as thermoplastic masks. In head and neck cancer radiotherapy, the patients are mostly immobilized by using thermoplastic masks. In this study, the effect of the thermoplastic mask to the surface and buildup region doses was investigated by using Markus parallel plate ion chamber...
متن کاملTwo-particle Direct Photon-Jet Correlation Measurements in PHENIX
Various 2-particle direct photon-hadron correlation yields in p + p and Au + Au collisions at √ sNN = 200 GeV are presented. The per-trigger yield of direct photon hadron pairs from direct-photon-jet correlations is obtained by a statistical subtraction of the decay photon pairs from inclusive photon-hadron sample. The decay photon pertrigger yields are estimated from the measured π-hadron by m...
