Simulation studies and spectroscopic measurements are presented regarding the development of a pixel multilayer CdTe detector under development in the context of the COCAE project. The instrument will be used for the localization and identification …
The COCAE project develops an instrument for localization and identification of radioactive sources. For the localization task it will exploit the Compton scattered photons within its detecting layers. It is based on pixilated Cd(Zn)Te matrices in a …
Extensive simulations of a portable radiation detecting system have been performed in order to explore important performance parameters. The instrument consists of a stack of ten detecting layers made of pixelated Cadmium Telluride (CdTe) crystals. …
We present extensive simulation studies on the performance of algorithms for the Compton sequence reconstruction used for the development of a portable spectroscopic instrument (COCAE), with the capability to localize and identify radioactive …
