Single-photon counting (SPC) hybrid pixel detectors (HPDs) have brought a new quality to the detection of low- and medium- intensity X-ray radiation. Due to the rapid development of CMOS technology, it is now possible to include much more functionality in each pixel without increasing its dimensions. This opened up new possibilities for SPC readout integrated circuits (ROICs). Counting photons...

The Brazilian Synchrotron Light Laboratory (LNLS), in Campinas, Brazil, part of the Brazilian Center for Research in Energy and Materials (CNPEM), operates the 4th-generation synchrotron light source SIRIUS. CNPEM is currently running the ORION Project, Latin America's first Biosafety Level 4 (BSL-4) laboratory that will be coupled to SIRIUS by three new beamlines, each of them specialized in...

Gas Proportional Scintillation Counters (GPSC) are gas-filled detectors wherein the charge signal arising from radiation interaction undergoes amplification via secondary scintillation induced by electron impact (electroluminescence) within the gas medium. Primary electrons produced by the interacting radiation migrate towards a scintillation region, where the applied electric field is high...

With the increasing global emphasis on nuclear security and non-proliferation, the detection and identification of nuclear and radioactive materials at the radiological crime scene are of paramount importance. To address this need, in the past free software has been developed identifying the photopeaks of the spectrum [1], [2], [3], [4] and commercial detectors identify the nuclides [5]...

The CMS detector will be upgraded for the HL-LHC to include a MIP Timing Detector (MTD). The MTD will consist of barrel and endcap timing layers, BTL and ETL respectively, providing precision timing of charged particles. The BTL sensors are based on LYSO:Ce scintillation crystals coupled to SiPMs with TOFHIR2 ASICs for the front-end readout. A resolution of 30-60 ps for MIP signals at a rate...

In dental computed tomography (CT), the image quality is usually degraded when patients have metallic objects such as metal implants or metal prosthesis, inducing several detrimental effects such as photon starvation, beam hardening, and photon scattering, all of which contribute to producing metal artifacts [1]. Although various metal artifact reduction (MAR) methods have been developed in...

Micropattern gas detectors (MPGDs) have been applied in many high-energy physics (HEP)experiments. The primary ionization signal generated by radiation in the sensitive volume is amplified through electron charge avalanches produced in the gas, under the high electric fields established across the micropattern elements. The avalanche electrons are, then, read out at the anode electrode....

Noble gas radiation detectors with optical readout are increasingly applied to astrophysics, particle physics and to x- and gamma ray imaging. They are based on the notable characteristic of responding to ionizing radiation interaction by producing both ionization and scintillation signals. In addition, another important asset of noble gases is the possibility to obtain the amplification of...
