Position Sensitive Detectors<br />

Highly segmented detectors<br />

• Each event x, y, z, t, E<br />

• x, y, z determined with PSA (IC + RC)<br />

/ mc<br />

• Experimental pulse shapes are compared to theoretical<br />

basis<br />

- Impossible to scan 180 detectors<br />

- Simulation can be adapted as neutron damage<br />

occurs<br />

• Tracking: Compton scatter formula relates scatter<br />

angle to energy deposited<br />

- Allows reconstruction <strong>of</strong> FEE<br />

- Increases P/T<br />

- Optimum use <strong>of</strong> HPGe coverage<br />
