A characteristic of every inorganic scintillator crystal is its light yield, i.e., the amount of emitted scintillation photons per unit of energy deposited in the crystal. Light yield is known to be usually non-linear with energy, which…

Scintillator-based X-ray imaging detectors are pivotal in numerous scientific and practical domains, including medical imaging, and security monitoring. Recent advancements have spurred interest in 4D X-ray imaging using synchrotron…

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 recent experiments, inorganic scintillators have been used to study the decays of exotic nuclei, providing an alternative to silicon detectors and enabling measurements that were previously impossible. However, proper use of these…

GAGG(Ce) is a novel scintillator with a fast response and high light output without a hygroscopic nature. It is expected to be a useful detector for charged particles at high-counting rates. However, the response of the GAGG(Ce)…

This paper is the first report describing how the concentrations of silicon and boron govern the cryogenic scintillation properties of n-type GaAs. It shows that valence band holes are promptly trapped on radiative centers and then combine…

We measure and explain scintillator non-proportionality and gamma quenching of CaWO4 at low energies and low temperatures. Phonons that are created following an interaction in the scintillating crystal at temperatures of 15mK are used for a…

Among the top priorities for high-energy astronomy in the coming decade are sensitive surveys in the hard X-ray/soft \gamma-ray (10-600 keV) and medium-energy \gamma-ray (0.2-80 MeV) bands. Historically, observations in the soft and medium…

Measurements have been performed of scintillation light intensities emitted from various inorganic scintillators irradiated with low-energy beams of highly-charged ions from an electron beam ion source (EBIS) and an electron cyclotron…

The high scintillation luminosity of n-type GaAs at 10K is surprising because (1) with a refractive index of about 3.5, escape is inhibited by total internal reflection and (2) narrow-beam experiments at 90K report infrared absorption…

Scintillators are widely used in radiation detection, with continuous advancements enhancing their performance and developing new materials. This study presents a custom experimental setup for the characterization of crystal scintillators…

We constructed a gamma-ray detector by combining two types of scintillator array detectors with an MPPC array and evaluated the spectral performance by reading out the signals from the MPPC with a low-power integrated circuit (ASIC)…

The proportional counter and scintillator on Ginga provided unprecented spectral coverage of GRBs, from 2 - 400 keV. Below 20 keV we find evidence for a positive spectral number index in approximately 40% of our burst sample, with some…
