Abstract

The goal of this article is to develop the necessary numerical models to study the differences of the induced current pulse shapes of protons and electrons in solid-state detectors (SSDs), all while validating these models with an experimental test bench. The shape of the captured current pulse created by the passage of the particle in the SSD is indicative of the nature of the particle, which we aim to predict using the information in the pulse shape. The performances and limits of such a system are explored here in the scope of proton/electron discrimination in Earth’s radiation belts. This provides a meaningful asset to the methods used in radiation monitors these days, which mostly rely on total energy deposited.

用于原位辐射带监测的质子和电子脉冲形状识别技术

本文的目的是开发必要的数值模型，以研究质子和电子在固态探测器（SSD）中的感应电流脉冲形状的差异，同时用实验测试台验证这些模型。粒子在固态探测器中通过时产生的捕获电流脉冲的形状表明了粒子的性质，我们的目标是利用脉冲形状中的信息来预测粒子的性质。在地球辐射带的质子/电子分辨范围内，我们在此探讨了这种系统的性能和局限性。这为目前辐射监测仪所使用的方法提供了有意义的资产，这些方法主要依赖于沉积的总能量。

期刊介绍： The IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science is a publication of the IEEE Nuclear and Plasma Sciences Society. It is viewed as the primary source of technical information in many of the areas it covers. As judged by JCR impact factor, TNS consistently ranks in the top five journals in the category of Nuclear Science & Technology. It has one of the higher immediacy indices, indicating that the information it publishes is viewed as timely, and has a relatively long citation half-life, indicating that the published information also is viewed as valuable for a number of years. The IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science is published bimonthly. Its scope includes all aspects of the theory and application of nuclear science and engineering. It focuses on instrumentation for the detection and measurement of ionizing radiation; particle accelerators and their controls; nuclear medicine and its application; effects of radiation on materials, components, and systems; reactor instrumentation and controls; and measurement of radiation in space.
