Experiments with Scintillators Plastic scintillators Scintillators are usually divided into three types, crystalline, liquid, and plastic, which utilize the ionization produced by charged particles to generate optical photons, typically in the blue to green wavelength regions. • Very short response times and are extensively utilized for experiments where accurate measurements of very short time intervals (ns) must be obtained in spite of extremely high counting rates • Detection of charged particles with minimal response to gamma-‐rays International Workshop on Acceleration and Applications of Heavy Ions 4
Photomultiplier (PMT) Multiply the charge produced by incident light (photoeffect) by as much as 100 million times Capable of resolving single photoelectrons of a light pulse produced by the scintillator International Workshop on Acceleration and Applications of Heavy Ions 5
