Resumen
COELLO, E.A. et al. Position sensitive detection system for charged particles. Rev. mex. fis. [online]. 2012, vol.58, n.3, pp.198-204. ISSN 0035-001X.
The position sensitive detection system presented in this work employs the Anger logic algorithm to determine the position of the light spark produced by the passage of charged particles on a 170 x 170 x 10 mm3 scintillator material (PILOT-U). The detection system consists of a matrix of nine photomultipliers, covering a fraction of the back area of the scintillators. Tests made with a non-collimated alpha particle source together with a Monte Carlo simulation that reproduces the data, suggest an intrinsic position resolution of up to 6 mm is achieved.
