Nuclear decommissioning demands a complete understanding of the radiological hazard present, which is often achieved through the combination of in-situ detection and the complementary radiochemistry. Current challenges with in-situ detection arise from the various functions present at nuclear installations. These place constraints on the detector geometry, precision, chemical and environmental...

Charge sharing deteriorates the spatial and spectral performance of spectroscopic imaging systems which exploit the small-pixel effect, such as HEXITEC. As charge sharing may be produced by multiple non-exclusive physical processes, a diverse range of charge carrier behaviours exist within charge sharing events – with each multipixel event containing process-specific spatial and spectral...

Motivation: Spectral photon counting CT (SPCCT) is widely accepted as a major medical advancement, bringing the potential for quantitative molecular imaging at higher speeds than conventional approaches. Realising this potential is currently limited by the cost and spectral performance of the semiconductors used for the sensor material, e.g. CdTe. Recently, interest has grown around...

Neutron spectroscopy is an invaluable tool for a wide range of scientific and industrial applications, including underground dark matter searches. Neutron-induced backgrounds originating from cosmic-ray muons and cavern radioactivity can mimic the expected dark matter signal and therefore constitute a major source of background in rare-event experiments. However, current neutron detection...
