Improved yield of photomultipliers for Cherenkov light [PDF]

Nuclear Instruments and Methods, 1979
The combined effects of using a wavelength shifter and higher voltage for better photoelectron collection is shown to give a gain of 70% in the photo-electron yield for the 11 cm diameter phototube RCA 8854 in a typical Cherenkov counter.

Suitability of high-pressure xenon as scintillator for gamma ray spectroscopy

, 2012
In this paper we report the experimental study of high-pressure xenon used as a scintillator, in the context of developing a gamma ray detector. We measure a light yield near 2 photoelectrons per keV for xenon at 40 bar. Together with the light yield, we

Latent image diffraction from submicron photoresist gratings [PDF]

, 1992
Light scattering from latent images in photoresist is useful for lithographic tool characterization, process monitoring, and process control. In particular, closed‐loop control of lithographic processes is critical for high yield, low cost device ...

Scintillation and Luminescent Properties of the (Gd,Y)₃Al₂Ga₃O₁₂:Ce Ceramics Obtained by Compaction of Green Bodies Using Digital Light Processing 3D Printing

Photonics
Dense and transparent ceramic samples of a (Gd,Y)3Al2Ga3O12:Ce scintillator were obtained by using stereolithography-based Digital Light Processing (DLP) 3D printing for compacting, subsequent burnout, and pressureless sintering.

Financial Burden Associated With Hospitalisation Among Families of Childhood Brain Tumours in Australia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Families of children with cancer experience significant financial strain, even with universal healthcare. Indirect costs, such as productivity losses and non‐medical expenses, are rarely included in economic evaluations, and little is known about how effectively financial aid programmes alleviate this burden. Childhood brain tumours

Characterization of a high light yield liquid scintillator with a novel organosilicon fluor developed for astroparticle physics experiments

European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2022
A new high light yield liquid scintillator based on linear alkylbenzene (LAB) as an organic solvent and a novel nanostructured organosilicon liminophore as a scintillation fluor has been developed for the next generation large-scale experiments in ...
