A LED system to control the gain stability of NaI detectors

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

An on-line LED pulser is proposed to control the overall gain (optical conctacts, photomultipliers, cables and electric circuits) of a scintillator telescope. Corrections to long-term gain fluctuations are discussed.

Riassunto

Si descrive un sistema a LED per il controllo on-line del guadagno globale (contatti ottici, fotomultiplicatori, cavi e circuiti elettrici) di un telescopioE, dE/dx a scintillazione. Si discute inoltre la correzione delle fluttuazioni del guadagno a lungo termine.
