Synchronisation and calibration of the 24-modules J-PET prototype with 300~mm axial field of view

P. Moskal, T. Bednarski, Sz. Niedzwiecki +36

Research conducted in the framework of the J-PET project aims to develop a cost-effective total-body positron emission tomography scanner. As a first step on the way to construct a…

The J-PET detector -- a tool for precision studies of ortho-positronium decays

K. Dulski, S. D. Bass, J. Chhokar +41

The J-PET tomograph is constructed from plastic scintillator strips arranged axially in concentric cylindrical layers. It enables investigations of positronium decays by measuremen…

Hit-time and hit-position reconstruction in strips of plastic scintillators using multi-threshold readouts

N. G. Sharma, M. Silarski, J. Chhokar +32

In this article, a new method for the reconstruction of hit-position and hit-time of photons in long scintillator detectors is investigated. This research is motivated by the recen…

Search for the Charge symmetry forbidden decays of electron-positron bound state using the J-PET detector

J. Chhokar

The Jagiellonian positron emission tomograph (J-PET) is a multi-purpose device built out of plastic scintillators. With large acceptance and high angular resolution, it is suitable…

Estimating relationship between the Time Over Threshold and energy loss by photons in plastic scintillators used in the J-PET scanner

S. Sharma, J. Chhokar, C. Curceanu +36

Time-Over-Threshold (TOT) technique is being used widely due to its implications in developing the multi channel readouts mainly when fast signal processing is required. Using TOT…

Performance assessment of the 2 positronium imaging with the total-body PET scanners

P. Moskal, D. Kisielewska, Z. Bura +39

In living organisms the positron-electron annihilation (occurring during the PET imaging) proceeds in about 30% via creation of a metastable ortho-positronium atom. In the tissue,…
