Tests of different coincidence systems with large volume Ge-Li detectors
Abstract
To achieve coincidence measurements in a large energy range the following systems were checked: a simple discriminator, a two threshold discriminator, a constant amplitude fraction discriminator, and a duration discriminator. Three Ge-Li detectors were used (35 to 50 cc). A plastic scintillator with a fast photomultiplier gave a time reference. The characteristics of the coincidence systems were established for different situations.
