An Optimized SVR Algorithm for Pulse Pile-Up Correction in Pulse Shape Discrimination [PDF]

open access: yesSensors
Pulse pile-up presents a significant challenge in nuclear radiation measurements, particularly in neutron-gamma pulse shape discrimination, as it causes pulse distortion and diminishes identification accuracy.

Pulse shape discrimination for Gerda Phase I data [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C, 2013
The GERDA experiment located at the LNGS searches for neutrinoless double beta (0νββ) decay of ^{76}Ge using germanium diodes as source and detector. In Phase I of the experiment eight semi-coaxial and five BEGe type detectors have been deployed. The latter type is used in this field of research for the first time.

Neutron and Gamma Pulse Shape Discrimination by Robust Determination of the Decay Shape

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Neutron/gamma pulse shape discrimination (PSD) is essential in applications such as radiation source analysis, nuclear material detection, detection of pollutants in the soil and cultural heritage. Neutrons are accompanied by gamma-ray photons due to the

Pulse shape simulations for organic scintillation detectors using Geant4 [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2021
The accurate simulation of the temporal pulse shapes from organic scintillation detectors capable of pulse shape discrimination (PSD) presents the opportunity to assess the pulse shape discrimination of these detectors prior to fabrication.

Pulse-shape discrimination in the IGEX experiment [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2003
The IGEX experiment has been operating enriched germanium detectors in the Canfranc Underground Laboratory (Spain) in a search for the neutrinoless double decay of 76Ge. The implementation of Pulse Shape Discrimination techniques to reduce the radioactive background is described in detail.

Pulse shape discrimination of CLYC, CLLBC and EJ-276 with SiPM readout [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2023
Solid state detectors for the detection of thermal and fast neutrons find widespread applications. They often operate in a high gamma-radiation field or are required to discriminate between gamma-radiation and neutrons.

Pulse-shape discrimination of CaF2(Eu) [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2010
We measured the decay time of the scintillation pulses produced by electron and nuclear recoils in CaF2(Eu) by a new fitting method. In the recoil energy region 5-30 keVee, we found differences of the decay time between electron and nuclear recoil events.
