A figure of merit is derived for the efficiency with which a detector images a γ-ray emitting object using the signal-to-noise ratio as the criterion. Photons scattered in the detector that ultimately ...

Selenium compounds exhibit chemopreventative properties at supranutritional doses, but the efficacy of selenium supplementation in cancer prevention is dependent on the chemical speciation of the ...

A Compton camera system consisting of a silicon drift detector (SDD) and an Anger camera has been constructed to study coincidence events and the possibility of tracking a recoil electron. An event is ...

Identifying the type of phosphor is a critical step in the light emitting diode (LED) e-waste recycling process. However, the similarities in color and chemical composition among different phosphors ...
