  • Real-time radioxenon measurement using a Compton-suppressed well-type phoswich detector for nuclear explosion monitoring

    Creator:
    Alemayehu, Bemnet
    Abstract:
    Radioxenon detection is a technique used to monitor nuclear explosion and verify the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT). Because of an ultra-low concentration of radioxenon at radioxenon monitoring stations, radioxenon detection systems must have high sensitivity. This sensitivity is measured in terms of detector's minimum detectable concentration (MDC). It is required...

  • Prototyping a triple-layer phoswich detection system

    Creator:
    Duncan, Christopher L.
    Abstract:
    Multi-layer optically coupled scintillation based radiation detectors, known as phoswich detectors, have rapidly evolved in recent years. During the same time, digital signal processing has improved radiation discrimination accuracy and enhanced reliability, while reducing complexity and size of traditional analog signal processing methods. A new generation of high-speed radiation detectors...
