“The tube”: a simple 4π detector for enhancing channels in γ-ray spectroscopy experiments

A simple 4 π charged-particle sensitive detector useful for γ-ray spectroscopy is described. The detector is a plastic scintillator tube, which surrounds the target. The tube is segmented into four optically isolated cylindrical arcs. The tube is an efficient charge particle hit detector with a very...

Summary:A simple 4 π charged-particle sensitive detector useful for γ-ray spectroscopy is described. The detector is a plastic scintillator tube, which surrounds the target. The tube is segmented into four optically isolated cylindrical arcs. The tube is an efficient charge particle hit detector with a very small photon interaction probability.
