A new method for the determination of the entry position of γ-rays [gamma rays] in high purity germanium detectors by current pulse analysis

A new method for determining the entry point of gamma-rays in closed ended HPGe detectors has been developed. Exploiting the position dependence shown by the current pulses generated when a gamma-ray interacts with the detector, it is possible to electronically divide the crystal in the radial coord...
