Erasmus Mundus Program: Environmental Measurements with iSpector

September 24th, 2021| |CAEN Experiments, Environmental radioactivity

In this report the radioactivity measurement of samples usually found in the environment was studied, using iSpector Digital (Intelligent Silicon Photomultiplier Tube with Digital MCA). After the energy calibration of the system based on LYSO crystal and the calibration verification and tuning with Potassium Chloride sample, the data analysis of the Pozzolana Sample Spectrum as well as the Background measurement was done. Furthermore, the test sample radiation was identified.

⏳️ Institute: University of InsubriaAbstractThe Silicon PhotoMultiplier (SiPM) consists of a high‐density (up to ~103 /mm2) matrix of diodes connected in parallel on a common Si substrate. Each diode is an Avalanche Photo Diode (APD) operated in a limited Geiger‐Müller regime connected in series with a quenching resistance, in order to achieve gain at
