A High Count-Rate and Depth-of-Interaction Resolving Single Layered One-Side Readout Pixelated Scintillator Crystal Array for PET Applications
J. M. C. Brown, S. E. Brunner, D. R. Schaart
Organ-specific, targeted Field-of-View (FoV) Positron Emission Tomography (PET)/Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) inserts are viable solutions for a number of imaging tasks where wh…
Recovery Time Measurements of Silicon Photomultipliers Using a Pulsed Laser
L. Gruber, S. E. Brunner, C. Curceanu +5
We performed an experimental study to determine the pixel recovery time of various Multi Pixel Photon Counters (MPPCs) in order to characterize their rate capability and double-hit…
Barrel time-of-flight detector for the PANDA experiment at FAIR
L. Gruber, S. E. Brunner, J. Marton +2
The barrel time-of-flight detector for the PANDA experiment at FAIR is foreseen as a Scintillator Tile (SciTil) Hodoscope based on several thousand small plastic scintillator tiles…
Time resolution below 100 ps for the SciTil detector of PANDA employing SiPM
S. E. Brunner, L. Gruber, J. Marton +2
The barrel time-of-flight (TOF) detector for the PANDA experiment at FAIR in Darmstadt is planned as a scintillator tile hodoscope (SciTil) using 8000 small scintillator tiles. It…
New Approaches for Improvement of TOF-PET
Stefan E. Brunner, Lukas Gruber, Johann Marton +2
We present results of simulations on the influence of photon propagation and the Cherenkov effect on the time resolution of LSO:Ce scintillators. The influence of the scintillator…
Studies on the Cherenkov Effect for Improved Time Resolution of TOF-PET
S. E. Brunner, L. Gruber, J. Marton +2
With the newly gained interest in the time of flight method for positron emission tomography (TOF-PET), many options for pushing the time resolution to its borders have been invest…
Efficiency and uniformity measurements of a light concentrator in combination with a SiPM array
Mariana Rihl, Stefan Enrico Brunner, Lukas Gruber +2
A position sensitive Cherenkov detector was built, consisting of 64 SiPMs with an active area of 3x3 mm^2 and a pixel size of 100x100 μm^2. The sensitive area is increased by a lig…
Over saturation behavior of SiPMs at high photon exposure
L. Gruber, S. E. Brunner, J. Marton +1
Several types of Silicon Photomultipliers were exposed to short pulsed laser light (~ 30 ps FWHM) with its intensity varying from single photon to well above the number of microcel…
Position sensitive SiPM detector for Cherenkov applications
L. Gruber, G. S. M. Ahmed, S. E. Brunner +3
A prototype of a position sensitive photo-detector with 5.6 x 5.6 cm2 detection area readout with 64 Hamamatsu MPPCs (S10931-100P) with 3 x 3 mm2 active area each has been built an…
