Abstract

The ASTRO-E Hard X-ray Detector utilized GSO/BGO well-type phoswich counters in compound-eye configuration, to achieve an extremely low background level of a few /spl times/10/sup -5/ counts s/sup -1/ cm/sup -2/ keV/sup -1/. The GSO scintillators installed in the BGO active shield wells observes 30-600 keV photons, while silicon PIN diodes of 2 mm thick placed in front of each GSO crystal covers 10-60 keV photons with energy resolution of /spl sim/3.5 keV FWHM. The design goals both of low background and high energy resolution in the hard X-ray bands were confirmed to be achieved through the preflight calibration experiments.
ASTRO-E硬x射线探测器研制成果
ASTRO-E硬x射线探测器在复眼配置中使用GSO/BGO井型光子计数器,以实现极低的背景水平,仅为几/spl次/10/sup -5/计数/sup -1/ cm/sup -2/ keV/sup -1/。安装在BGO有源屏蔽井中的GSO闪烁体观测到30-600 keV光子,而放置在每个GSO晶体前的2 mm厚的硅PIN二极管观测到10-60 keV光子,能量分辨率为/spl sim/3.5 keV FWHM。通过飞行前标定实验,确定了硬x射线波段低背景和高能量分辨率的设计目标。
