The impulse response of a photomultiplier tube, front-end amplifier, and constant-fraction discriminator (CFD) is modeled so that the effects of front-end bandwidth and constant-fraction delay and fraction can be evaluated for timing-system optimizations. Monte Carlo timing resolution for a bismuth germanate (BGO)/photomultiplier scintillation detector, CFD timing system is presented as a function of constant-fraction delay for 511-keV coincident gamma rays in the presence of Compton scatter. Monte Carlo results are in good agreement with measured results, indicating better timing resolution with decreasing constant-fraction delay. Monte Carlo energy-discrimination performance is experimentally verified along with the timing resolution (Monte Carlo resolution of 3.1 ns FWHM versus measured resolution of 3.3 ns FWHM) for a front-end rise time of 10 ns (10-90%). CFD delay of 8 ns, and CFD fraction of 20%.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":447239,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Conference on Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134538559","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the present work, the authors investigated the application of the TPCS to photoelectron spectrometry, substituting a 2- mu m thick gold target to improve device sensitivity to low-energy photons. Experiments with a gold target, a polypropylene target, and no target (background) were done at the Saturn pulsed X-ray source for various endpoint bremsstrahlung up to about 2 MV. Response functions were calculated using the TIGERP electron/photon Monte Carlo code. The signal from gold is larger and persists longer, as expected. The spectrum unfolded from the gold signals has problems, however. Alternative approaches to the unfold problem that combine data from both targets may prove more successful. If so, a future spectrometer could be designed to incorporate both low-Z and high-Z targets in a single instrument.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":447239,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Conference on Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125319217","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A method for using a modern TDC (time-to-digital converter) to increase the scintillation lifetime measurement rate by a factor of over 300 is discussed. It uses the delayed coincidence method, where a start photomultiplier tube (PMT) provides a signal synchronized to the excitation of the specimen and a stop PMT samples the resulting fluorescent lifetime spectrum. Typical data acquisition rates are low because the light collection efficiency of the stop PMT is artificially limited to in approximately=0.001 fluorescent photons per start signal to reduce the probability of detecting >1 photon per excitation. Some modern TDCs can detect whether additional stop signals occur during the sampling period and thus reject events in which >1 stop photons are present. This allows in to be increased to 1, which maximizes the data acquisition rate at a value over 300 times higher. Multi-hit TDCs can digitize the arrival times of n stop signals per start signal, which allows in to be increased to approximately=n. Since multiple photon events, which usually bias the data, are eliminated or measured, this method also improves the measurement accuracy.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":447239,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Conference on Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133384487","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
