Abstract: A high-energy ray detector includes a detection unit in a vacuum container. The detection unit includes a first electron multiplier, a second electron multiplier, and an electron collector. Each of the first electron multiplier and the second electron multiplier has one or more MCPs each configured to emit electrons by interaction with an incident high-energy ray (γ-ray, X-ray (in particular hard X-ray), or neutron ray), and multiply and output the electrons. The electron collector is transmissive for the high-energy ray. The electron collector is configured to collect the electrons multiplied and output from each of the first electron multiplier and the second electron multiplier, and output an electric pulse signal.

Abstract: A gamma ray detector is a detector detecting gamma rays and includes a photomultiplier tube having an entrance window and a photoelectric surface. The entrance window is a Cherenkov radiator. The photoelectric surface is formed on a vacuum side of the entrance window via an intermediate layer. The thickness of the intermediate layer is equal to or less than the wavelength of Cherenkov light emitted by an interaction of the gamma rays with the entrance window.

Abstract: A tomographic image creation apparatus includes a time difference calculation unit, a signal waveform processing unit, an error estimation unit, a γ-ray pair generation position calculation unit, and an image creation unit. The time difference calculation unit calculates, for each of γ-ray pair coincidence events, a time difference of a timing at which a value of each of a first signal and a second signal output from a signal waveform acquisition unit reaches a threshold value. The signal waveform processing unit relatively shifts a waveform of the first signal or a waveform of the second signal by the time difference in a direction approaching each other. The error estimation unit estimates an error of the time difference by a DNN based on the waveform of each of the first signal and the second signal after shifting.
