Neutron-γ discrimination with organic scintillators: Intrinsic pulse shape and light yield contributions [PDF]
A comparative study of the neutron- γ Pulse Shape Discrimination (PSD) with seven organic scintillators is performed using an identical setup and digital electronics. The scintillators include plastics (EJ-299-33 and a plastic prototype), single crystals

Binary masks yielding Gaussian light distributions in Maxwellian view [PDF]
Gaussian light distributions are important stimuli for vision research, but are difficult to produce for Maxwellian viewing conditions. In this study, two binary Maxwellian-view masks which produce smooth light distributions on the retina were considered: one was an out-of-focus circular aperture; the other was an in-focus pattern of opaque squares ...

Influence of a Surface Finishing Method on Light Collection Behaviour of PWO Scintillator Crystals
In the field of scintillators, high scintillation and light production performance require high-quality crystals. Although the composition and structure of crystals are fundamental in this direction, their ultimate optical performance is strongly ...

A very high light-yield imaging chamber [PDF]
Abstract By operating the parallel-plate imaging chamber in a nonproportional regime it was possible to increase the light yield from the gas avalanches by a factor in excess of 10 4 over the proportional operation. At this higher gain, the avalanches can easily be seen with the naked eye in a moderately lit room and recorded with CCD cameras ...
