  • A Compact Radioxenon Detection System Using CZT, an Array of SiPMs, and a Plastic Scintillator

    Czyz, Steven A.
    Abstract:
    Several radioxenon isotopes (¹³¹ᵐXe, ¹³³Xe, ¹³³ᵐXe, ¹³⁵Xe) are characteristic byproducts of nuclear explosions, and due to their chemically nonreactive nature can easily escape from tests occurring underground and enter the atmosphere. It has been shown that by utilizing beta-gamma coincidence techniques, the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO) can...

  • A Beta-Gamma Radioxenon Detection System using Ultra-Bright Inorganic Scintillators and Solid State Detectors

    Creator:
    Czyz, Steven A.
    Abstract:
    The atmospheric detection of four radioxenon isotopes (131mXe, 133mXe, 133Xe, and 135Xe) released during a nuclear detonation is a key tool utilized by the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO) to identify clandestine nuclear weapon testing activity. These radioxenon isotopes all decay via the near-simultaneous release of an electron and a...
