Abstract: Muon tomography is a novel technology that is being developed for detecting high-Z materials in vehicles or cargo containers. Maximum likelihood methods have been developed for ...

Abstract: We present a model to describe the origin of non-proportional dependence of scintillator light yield on the energy of an ionizing particle. The non-proportionality is discussed in terms of ...

Herein, we designed and fabricated a top-filter-bottom (TFB) sandwich structure scintillator for high-resolution DEXI within a single exposure. More specifically, the low- and high-energy X-ray ...

Replacement of chambers and consolidation work on the Muon Spectrometer in the ALICE cavern. (Image: ALICE) Installation of new muon detectors – the improved Resistive Plate Chambers (iRPC) – in one ...

In this paper we discuss some of the performance characteristics of MPPCs, and several applications, namely for muon cooling experiments, rare muon decay modes, and collider detectors. In addition we ...

Alexander et al. [55] utilized an MRX-160/22 (Comet, Flamatt, Switzerland) X-ray tube to generate X-rays and investigated four plastic scintillator dosimeters with different compositions. These ...
