Setup for Studying Scintillation Detectors

A laboratory experimental setup based on scintillation detectors is described, which is used in the educational process at MEPhI. The setup is designed to study methods for investigating the characteristics of scintillators as well as the operation of a silicon photoelectron multiplier. The results of measuring the spectra from standard gamma-radiation sources using various scintillators are shown, calibration is carried out, and an estimation of the energy resolution of the detectors is given.

Abstract

A laboratory experimental setup based on scintillation detectors is described, which is used in the educational process at MEPhI. The setup is designed to study methods for investigating the characteristics of scintillators as well as the operation of a silicon photoelectron multiplier. The results of measuring the spectra from standard gamma-radiation sources using various scintillators are shown, calibration is carried out, and an estimation of the energy resolution of the detectors is given.
