Abstract

The high-energy (15-300 keV) experiment PDS is one of the four narrow-field instruments on board the Italian-Dutch SAX satellite. The PDS detector is composed of four actively shielded NaI(Tl)/CsI(Na) phoswich scintillators and has a field of view of 1.4 degrees (FWHM). The total geometric area is 795 cm/sup 2/. The authors present a description of the instrument and its development status with particular emphasis on the performance of the pulse shape analysis electronics.<>

x射线天文卫星SAX上的高能实验光子探测系统

高能(15-300 keV)实验PDS是意大利-荷兰SAX卫星上的四个窄场仪器之一。PDS探测器由四个主动屏蔽的NaI(Tl)/CsI(Na)光闪烁体组成，视场为1.4度(FWHM)。总几何面积是795cm /sup 2/。作者介绍了该仪器及其发展现状，特别强调了脉冲形状分析电子学的性能。
