Use of BaF2 scintillators as γ-ray detectors

Creators

  • 1. Research Inst. of Physics, Stockholm, Sweden

Description

The discovery of an intense, fast component of the light pulse from BaF2 crystals suggests several applications of such detectors in connection with the detection of γ-rays. The energy and time resolutions of a medium sized BaF2 scintillator have been investigated, and the preliminary results are reported here
