Electric field calculation and ionization signal simulation in liquid xenon detectors for PET

Electric field calculations and ionization signal simulations in a liquid xenon detector for Positron Emission Tomography have been performed. The electric field was calculated using Opera 3D, a Finite Element Method application software. The uniformity of the electric field inside of the detector w...
