Development of liquid xenon detectors for medical imaging
V. Chepel, M. I. Lopes, V. Solovov +2
In the present paper, we report on our developments of liquid xenon detectors for medical imaging, positron emission tomography and single photon imaging, in particular. The result…
Low Temperature Performance of a Large Area Avalanche Photodiode
V. N. Solovov, F. Neves, V. Chepel +3
A Large Area Avalanche Photodiode (LAAPD) was studied, aiming to access its performance as light detector at low temperatures, down to -80 C. The excess noise factor, F, was measur…
Perspectives for Positron Emission Tomography with RPCs
A. Blanco, V. Chepel, R. Ferreira-Marques +4
In this study we address the feasibility and main properties of a positron emission tomograph (PET) based on RPCs. The concept, making use of the converter-plate principle, takes a…
Detection of Scintillation Light of Liquid Xenon with a LAAPD
V. N. Solovov, A. Hitachi, V. Chepel +3
First observation of liquid xenon scintillation due to alpha-particles and gamma-rays with a large area avalanche photodiode immersed in the liquid is reported. An energy resolutio…
