The Quest for the Ideal Scintillator for Hybrid Phototubes [PDF]
IEEETrans.Nucl.Sci.55:1333-1337,2008, 2007 In this paper we present the results of extensive studies of scintillators for hybrid phototubes with luminescent screens. The results of the developments of such phototubes with a variety of scintillators are presented. New scintillator materials for such kind of application are discussed.

Cherenkov and Scintillation Separation in Water-Based Liquid Scintillator using an LAPPD [PDF]
Eur. Phys. J. C 82-2 (2022) 169, 2021 This manuscript describes measurements of water-based liquid scintillators (WbLS), demonstrating separation of the Cherenkov and scintillation components using the fast timing response of a Large Area Picosecond Photodector (LAPPD). Additionally, the time profiles of three WbLS mixtures, defined by the relative fractions of scintillating compound, are ...

Radioactive contamination of scintillators [PDF]
International Journal of Modern Physics A Vol. 33, No. 9 (2018)
1843007 (42 pages), 2018 Low counting experiments (search for double $\beta$ decay and dark matter particles, measurements of neutrino fluxes from different sources, search for hypothetical nuclear and subnuclear processes, low background $\alpha$, $\beta$, $\gamma$ spectrometry) require extremely low background of a detector.

Scintillation of Partially Coherent Light in Time Varying Complex Media [PDF]
, 2022 We present a theory for wave scintillation in the situation with a time-dependent partially coherent source and a time-dependent randomly heterogeneous medium. Our objective is to understand how the scintillation index of the measured intensity depends on the source and medium parameters.

Detection of the primary scintillation light from dense Ar, Kr and Xe with novel photosensitive gaseous detectors [PDF]
, 2001 The detection of primary scintillation light in combination with the charge or secondary scintillation signals is an efficient technique to determine the events t=0 as well as particle / photon separation in large mass TPC detectors filled with noble ...

Multi-frequency GNSS robust carrier tracking for ionospheric scintillation mitigation
Journal of Space Weather and Space Climate, 2017 Ionospheric scintillation is the physical phenomena affecting radio waves propagating from the space through the ionosphere to earth. The signal distortion induced by scintillation can pose a major threat to some GNSS application. Scintillation is one of

The ionosphere prediction service prototype for GNSS users
Journal of Space Weather and Space Climate, 2019 The effect of the Earth’s ionosphere represents the single largest contribution to the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) error budget and abnormal ionospheric conditions can impose serious degradation on GNSS system functionality, including ...

The tropospheric scintillation prediction of earth-to-satellite link for Bangladeshi climatic condition [PDF]
Serbian Journal of Electrical Engineering, 2015 The performance of earth-to-satellite link largely depends on various environmental factors like rain, fog, cloud, and atmospheric effects like ionospheric and tropospheric scintillation.
