Portable Gamma-Ray Spectrometer for High Intensity Beam Measuring

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper presents the development of the Laboratory "X-ray Optics" of the Institute of Applied Physics and Technology of Tomsk Polytechnic University, a portable gamma-ray spectrometer, which dimensions are 50×20×30 mm. The device is able to count and analyze gamma quanta with energies from hundreds of keV up to units of MeV with loading up to 109 pulses/min. The problem has been solved by improving the known scintillation counters, using modern silicon photomultiplier tubes, selecting the optimal scintillators and developing original electronic scaler.
