Improving position resolution of neutron detectors with ultra-thin B4C foils
N. F. V. Duarte, J. S. Marcos, A. Antognini +4
A new technique for detection of slow neutrons with gaseous detectors using ultra-thin layers with 10B atoms is presented. The reaction between a thermal neutron and a 10B atom rel…
Improved X-ray detection and particle identification with avalanche photodiodes
Marc Diepold, Luis M. P. Fernandes, Jorge Machado +36
Avalanche photodiodes are commonly used as detectors for low energy x-rays. In this work we report on a fitting technique used to account for different detector responses resulting…
Characterization of large area avalanche photodiodes in X-ray and VUV-light detection
L. M. P. Fernandes, F. D. Amaro, A. Antognini +14
The present manuscript summarizes novel studies on the application of large area avalanche photodiodes (LAAPDs) to the detection of X-rays and vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) light. The o…
Planar LAAPDs: Temperature Dependence, Performance, and Application in Low Energy X-ray Spectroscopy
L. Ludhova, F. D. Amaro, A. Antognini +25
An experiment measuring the 2S Lamb shift in muonic hydrogen mup is being performed at the Paul Scherrer Institute, Switzerland. It requires small and compact detectors for 1.9 keV…
