Observation of gain operation mode in Ge:B BIB THz detector
AIP Advances, 2021 Blocked impurity band (BIB) detectors play an important role in astronomical detection from the mid-infrared to THz region. We demonstrated the field dependence of the photoresponse in BIB detectors using both experimental results and theoretical ...

Properties and Patterns of Polarized Gravitational Waves
Universe, 2022 We discuss the polarization of gravitational radiation within the standard framework of linearized general relativity. The recent experimental discovery of gravitational waves provides the impetus to revisit the implications of the spin-rotation-gravity ...

Review of Compton camera imaging technology development
He jishu, 2021 Compton camera (CC) is a new type gamma-ray imaging modality. Because CC has no mechanical collimation structure, it has unique advantages in detection efficiency compared with other gamma-ray imaging modalities.

Focal length determination for the 60cm telescope at Astronomical station Vidojevica [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2012 The focal length of a telescope is an important parameter in determining the angular pixel size. This parameter is used for the purpose of determining the relative coordinates (angular separation and positional angle) of double and multiple ...

Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors [PDF]
, 2005 Low temperature detectors have been a subject of intense interest to the scientific community over the last decade. These detectors work at very low temperatures, often well below 1 Kelvin, to minimize the noise in the measurement of photons.
