We investigate the performance of large area radiation detectors, with high energy- and spatial-resolution, intended for the development of a Total Energy Detector with gamma-ray imaging capability, so-called i-TED. This new development…
LaBr3:Ce crystals have good scintillation properties for X-ray spectroscopy. Initially, they were introduced for radiation imaging in medical physics with either a photomultiplier or SiPM readout, and they found extensive applications in…
Localisation of gamma-ray interaction points in monolithic scintillator crystals can simplify the design and improve the performance of a future Compton telescope for gamma-ray astronomy. In this paper we compare the position resolution of…
We have characterized in depth the time response of three detectors equipped with cylindrical LaBr$_{3}$ (Ce) crystals with dimensions of 1-in. in height and 1-in. in diameter, and having nominal Ce doping concentration of 5%, 8% and 10%.…
Gamma rays in the energy range from 6 to 38 MeV were produced and sent into two large volume LaBr3(Ce) crystals (3.5x8 inches) at the NewSUBARU facility, with the goal of investigating the response function of the detectors. By comparing…
The response of a scintillation detector with a cylindrical 1.5-inch LaBr3:Ce crystal to incident neutrons has been measured in the energy range En = 2-12 MeV. Neutrons were produced by proton irradiation of a Li target at Ep = 5-14.6 MeV…
This study aims to provide an accurate estimation of the intrinsic resolution of LaBr$_3$(Ce) crystal through a combination of experimental and simulation methods. We re-analyzed the data from previous Wide-Angle Compton Coincidence (WACC)…
We have developed a position-sensitive scintillation camera with a large area absorber for use as an advanced Compton gamma-ray camera. At first we tested GSO(Ce) crystals. We compared light output from the GSO(Ce) crystals under various…
Compact X-rays detectors made of 1/2" or 1" :LaBr3:Ce crystals of cubic shape with SiPM array readout have been developed for the FAMU experiment at RIKEN-RAL. The aim is a precise measurement of the proton Zemach radius with incoming…
Scintillation properties of the new Tl2LaCl5: xCe3+ where x = 0, 0.5, 1 and 10 mole % (TLC: Ce3+) single crystals are presented. Two zones vertical Bridgman technique is used for the growth of this scintillation material. High Z-number (79)…
A prototype of LaBr3:Ce in situ gamma-ray spectrometer for marine environmental monitoring is developed and applied for in situ measurement. A 3-inch LaBr3:Ce scintillator is used in the detector, and a digital pulse process electronics is…
LaBr3:Ce crystals, with photomultiplier or single SiPM readout (up to 3x3 mm$^2$) have been introduced for radiation imaging in medical physics. An R&D was pursued with 1/2" and 1" LaBr3:Ce crystals, from different producers, to realize…
Detection of photons with scintillating inorganic crystals in the high-energy range (> 0.1 MeV) will be discussed, making a comparison with other available methods. Energy resolutions up to 2 % at 662 keV and fast decay time of the order of…
In this study we present our preliminary report on the scintillation properties of new Ce-doped Tl2LaBr5 single crystal. Two zones vertical Bridgman technique is used for the growth of this compound. Pure and Ce-doped samples showed maximum…
In terms of energy resolution, temporal response to burst events, and thermal stability, lanthanum bromide doped with Ce is a much better choice than the traditional NaI(Tl) scintillator for hard X-ray astronomy. We present the test results…
The applicability of LaBr3:Ce detectors for high count rate {\gamma}-ray spectroscopy is investigated. A 3"x3" LaBr3:Ce detector is used in a test setup with radioactive sources to study the dependence of energy resolution and photo peak…

Using highly monochromatic synchrotron X-rays in the energy range from 10.5 keV to 100 keV the temperature dependence of nonproportionality and energy resolution of LaBr3 scintillators doped with 5% Ce3+ were studied at 80K, 295K, and 450K.…
