Fast timing using NaI crystals

The suitability of using a Nal crystal as a fast coincidence gamma ray detector was investigated using the multichannel "fast-slow" delayed
coincidence method to obtain prompt time resolution curves with a Na²² gamma ray source at Nal temperatures of 170, 185, 200°K. A comparison of the time resolution curve obtained using two NE 102 plastic scintillators (FWHM: 640 psec) with that using a cooled Nal scintillator and a NE 102 scintillator (FWHM: 680-psee) showed that Nal is a satisfactory fast coincidence gamma ray detector at 185°K. / Science, Faculty of / Physics and Astronomy, Department of / Graduate
