Electron identification and hadron discrimination using Cherenkov radiation in air and SiPMs
A. Alici, F. Carnesecchi, B. R. Achari +43
This paper presents a method to identify electrons using the Cherenkov light emitted when a charged particle travels in air and photons are detected with a Silicon PhotoMultiplier…
Investigating the Timing Behavior of Compton Scattering in BGO for Time-of-Flight PET
Minseok Yi, Daehee Lee, Alberto Gola +5
Bismuth germanate (BGO) is gaining renewed attention as a viable material for hybrid Cherenkov/scintillation time-of-flight positron emission tomography (TOF-PET) detectors. While…
Measurements of efficiency, timing and response to irradiation for direct detection of charged particles with SiPMs
F. Carnesecchi, B. Sabiu, B. R. Achari +47
In this paper the efficiency of direct charged particle detection with different Silicon PhotoMultiplier (SiPM) sensors has been measured to be close to 100%. Time resolution of ab…
Below 100 ps CTR using FastIC+, an ASIC including on-chip digitization for ToF-PET and beyond
D. Mazzanti, S. Gomez, J. Mauricio +19
This work presents the 8-channel FastIC+, a low-power consumption and highly configurable multi-channel front-end ASIC with internal digitization, for the readout of photo-sensors…
