Multiple photon counting technique for detection and analysis of slow scintillation processes

Conference item

Abstract:: The development of the multi-photon counting (MPC) technique for the investigation of scintillation properties of materials is presented. The technique is based on the recording and analysis of a sequence of individual photon pulses resulting from a scintillation event. The technique is especially advantageous for the analysis of slow scintillation processes and the investigation of temperature-dependent scintillator proper-Lies. The results on the temperature variation of scintillation characteristics of ZnSe and ZnSe-Te are presented to illustrate the performance of the MPC technique. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd.
