Empirical dead-time corrections for synchrotron sources.
نویسندگان
چکیده
An experimental comparison of models for performing dead-time corrections of photon-counting detectors at synchrotron sources is presented. The performance of several detectors in the three operating modes of the Advanced Photon Source is systematically compared, with particular emphasis on asymmetric fill patterns. Several simple and well known correction formulas are evaluated. The results demonstrate the critical importance of detector speed and synchrotron fill pattern in selecting the proper dead-time correction.

Empirical dead-time corrections for energy-resolving detectors at synchrotron sources
We examine the high count-rate performance of an energy-resolving detector in the three operating modes of the Advanced Photon Source (APS). Specifically, we present the optimal dead-time corrections for the SII Vortex silicon drift diode (SDD) detector using a digital pulse processor, highlighting the differences in operation between the 24-bunch, 324-bunch, and hybrid singlet modes of the APS...
متن کاملHigh-rate dead-time corrections in a general purpose digital pulse processing system
Dead-time losses are well recognized and studied drawbacks in counting and spectroscopic systems. In this work the abilities on dead-time correction of a real-time digital pulse processing (DPP) system for high-rate high-resolution radiation measurements are presented. The DPP system, through a fast and slow analysis of the output waveform from radiation detectors, is able to perform multi-para...
متن کاملSuccess and failure of dead-time models as applied to hybrid pixel detectors in high-flux applications
The performance of a single-photon-counting hybrid pixel detector has been investigated at the Australian Synchrotron. Results are compared with the body of accepted analytical models previously validated with other detectors. Detector functionals are valuable for empirical calibration. It is shown that the matching of the detector dead-time with the temporal synchrotron source structure leads ...
متن کاملBunch mode specific rate corrections for PILATUS3 detectors
PILATUS X-ray detectors are in operation at many synchrotron beamlines around the world. This article reports on the characterization of the new PILATUS3 detector generation at high count rates. As for all counting detectors, the measured intensities have to be corrected for the dead-time of the counting mechanism at high photon fluxes. The large number of different bunch modes at these synchro...
متن کاملUsing Intelligent Methods and Optimization of the Existing Empirical Correlations for Iranian Dead Oil Viscosity
Numerous empirical correlations exist for the estimation of crude oil viscosities. Most of these correlations are not based on the experimental and field data from Iranian geological zone. In this study several well-known empirical correlations including Beal, Beggs, Glasso, Labedi, Schmidt, Alikhan and Naseri were optimized and refitted with the Iranian oil field data. The results showed that ...
