摘要: A photodetector includes N photodetection pixels arranged one-dimensionally or two-dimensionally and each for generating a detection signal in response to incidence of light, and a single output terminal for outputting the detection signal generated in each of the N photodetection pixels. Each of the N photodetection pixels includes an avalanche photodiode operating in Geiger mode, and a quenching resistor connected in series to the avalanche photodiode, and the N photodetection pixels are configured to output detection signals having time waveforms different from each other.

摘要: 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.

摘要: 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.

摘要: A scintillator array including a plurality of scintillators, an optical detector array corresponding to the scintillators, an AD conversion unit configured to convert an analog signal output from each optical detector into digital data, and a position detection processing unit configured to specify a position of the scintillator on which the radiation is incident are provided. If there are two different pieces of digital data at the same time, the position detection processing unit determines that radiation is incident on two scintillators when energy value data of the two pieces of digital data is greater than an energy value of a Compton edge and specifies the address of the scintillator on which the radiation is incident by comparing the energy values of the two pieces of digital data when at least one of the two energy values is less than the energy value of the Compton edge.
