The recent development of energy-resolved scintillation crystals opens the way to build novel imaging concepts based on variable energy. Among them, Compton scattering tomography (CST) is one most ambitious concepts. Akin Computerized Tomography (CT), it consists in probing attenuation map an object interest using external ionizing sources but strives exploit scattered radiation as agent. For m...

The results of the development modern precision monitors alpha, beta and gamma ray radiation for setting up early warning systems radioactive contamination in atmosphere rapid assessment emerging threats, are presented. Proportional counters, scintillation SrI (Eu) crystals semiconductor Si, CdZnTe, HPGe detectors used 2 development. designed provide information both on dose rate values real ti...

Measurements have been performed with scintillation crystals of LaBr3:Ce coupled to an array Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) in a 3 T magnetic field. The SiPMs were read out by digital data acquisition systems, including the GET electronics system. Inside B-field, energy resolution values 3.82% FWHM at 661.7 keV are reported for 1.5′′ cubic crystal 6 × mm2 SiPMs. No measurable degradation due ...
