It is going to address fundamental questions of hadron physics and quantum chromodynamics using cooled antiproton beams with a high intensity and and momenta between 1.5 and 15 GeV/c. PANDA is designed to reach a maximum luminosity of 2x10^32 cm^2 s. Most of the physics programs require an excellent particle identification (PID). The PID of hadronic states at the forward endcap of the target spectrometer will be done by a fast and compact Cherenkov detector that uses the detection of internally reflected Cherenkov light (DIRC) principle. It is designed to cover the polar angle range from 5掳 to 22掳 and to provide a separation power for the separation of charged pions and kaons up to 3 standard deviations (s.d.) for particle momenta up to 4 GeV/c in order to cover the important particle phase space. This document describes the technical design and the expected performance of the novel PANDA Disc DIRC detector that has not been used in any other high energy physics experiment (HEP) before. The performance has been studied with Monte-Carlo simulations and various beam tests at DESY and CERN. The final design meets all PANDA requirements and guarantees suffcient safety margins. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1912.12638v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1912.12638v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 29 December, 2019; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> December 2019. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">TDR for Panda/Fair to be published</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1807.10754">arXiv:1807.10754</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1807.10754">pdf</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Instrumentation and Detectors">physics.ins-det</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1109/TMI.2018.2837741">10.1109/TMI.2018.2837741 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Evaluation of Single-Chip, Real-Time Tomographic Data Processing on FPGA - SoC Devices </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Korcyl%2C+G">G.

We propose a system in which there is no need for powerful, local to the scanner processing facility, capable to reconstruct images on the fly. Instead we introduce a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) System-on-Chip (SoC) platform connected directly to data streams coming from the scanner, which can perform event building, filtering, coincidence search and Region-Of-Response (ROR) reconstruction by the programmable logic and visualization by the integrated processors.

It is possible to achieve a precision of time measurement of $20$ ps RMS and reconstruct charge of signals, using a simple approach, with deviation from real value smaller than 10$\%$. Utilization of the differential inputs of an FPGA chip as comparators together with an implementation of a TDC inside an FPGA allowed us to achieve a compact multi-channel system characterized by low power consumption and low production costs. This paper describes realization and functioning of the system comprising 192-channel TDC board and a four mezzanine cards which split incoming signals and discriminate them. The boards have been used to validate a newly developed Time-of-Flight Positron Emission Tomography system based on plastic scintillators. The achieved full system time resolution of $蟽$(TOF) $\approx 68$ ps is by factor of two better with respect to the current TOF-PET systems. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1707.03565v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1707.03565v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 12 July, 2017; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> July 2017. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">Accepted for publication in JINST, 10 pages, 8 figures</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1612.08571">arXiv:1612.08571</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1612.08571">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1612.08571">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Instrumentation and Detectors">physics.ins-det</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nima.2017.01.045">10.1016/j.nima.2017.01.045 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Measurement of gamma quantum interaction point in plastic scintillator with WLS strips </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Smyrski%2C+J">J.

In Time of Flight PET (TOF-PET), fast detectors are able to measure the difference in the arrival time of the two gamma rays, with the precision enabling to shorten significantly a range along the line-of-response (LOR) where the annihilation occurred. In the new concept, called J-PET scanner, gamma rays are detected in plastic scintillators. In a single strip of J-PET system, time values are obtained by probing signals in the amplitude domain. Owing to Compress Sensing theory, information about the shape and amplitude of the signals is recovered. In this paper we demonstrate that based on the acquired signals parameters, a better signal normalization may be provided in order to improve the TOF resolution. The procedure was tested using large sample of data registered by a dedicated detection setup enabling sampling of signals with 50 ps intervals. Experimental setup provided irradiation of a chosen position in the plastic scintillator strip with annihilation gamma quanta. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1507.03799v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1507.03799v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 8 August, 2015; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 14 July, 2015; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> July 2015. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Nukleonika 61, (2016) 35-39 </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1504.06889">arXiv:1504.06889</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1504.06889">pdf</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Medical Physics">physics.med-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Instrumentation and Detectors">physics.ins-det</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1515/bams-2013-0106">10.1515/bams-2013-0106 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> 3D PET image reconstruction based on Maximum Likelihood Estimation Method (MLEM) algorithm </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=S%C5%82omski%2C+A">Artur S艂omski</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Rudy%2C+Z">Zbigniew Rudy</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Bednarski%2C+T">Tomasz Bednarski</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Bia%C5%82as%2C+P">Piotr Bia艂as</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Czerwi%C5%84ski%2C+E">Eryk Czerwi艅ski</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Kap%C5%82on%2C+%C5%81">艁ukasz Kap艂on</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Kochanowski%2C+A">Andrzej Kochanowski</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Korcyl%2C+G">Grzegorz Korcyl</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Kowal%2C+J">Jakub Kowal</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Kowalski%2C+P">Pawe艂 Kowalski</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Kozik%2C+T">Tomasz Kozik</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Krzemie%C5%84%2C+W">Wojciech Krzemie艅</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Molenda%2C+M">Marcin Molenda</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Moskal%2C+P">Pawe艂 Moskal</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Nied%C5%BAwiecki%2C+S">Szymon Nied藕wiecki</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Pa%C5%82ka%2C+M">Marek Pa艂ka</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Pawlik%2C+M">Monika Pawlik</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Raczy%C5%84ski%2C+L">Lech Raczy艅ski</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Salabura%2C+P">Piotr Salabura</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Gupta-Sharma%2C+N">Neha Gupta-Sharma</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Silarski%2C+M">Micha艂 Silarski</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Smyrski%2C+J">Jerzy Smyrski</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Strzelecki%2C+A">Adam Strzelecki</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Wi%C5%9Blicki%2C+W">Wojciech Wi艣licki</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Zieli%C5%84ski%2C+M">Marcin Zieli艅ski</a> , et al.

As there is a multitude of detectors build-in typical PET tomograph structure, there are many possible detector pairs that pertain to the measurement. The problem is how to turn this measurement into an image (this is called imaging). Decisive improvement in PET image quality was reached with the introduction of iterative reconstruction techniques. This stage was reached already twenty years ago (with the advent of new powerful computing processors). However, three dimensional (3D) imaging remains still a challenge. The purpose of the image reconstruction algorithm is to process this imperfect count data for a large number (many millions) of lines-of-responce (LOR) and millions of detected photons to produce an image showing the distribution of the labeled molecules in space. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1504.06889v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1504.06889v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 26 April, 2015; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> April 2015. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">10 pages, 7 figures</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Bio-Algorithms and Med-Systems 10(1), 1-7 (2014) </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1504.06886">arXiv:1504.06886</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1504.06886">pdf</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Instrumentation and Detectors">physics.ins-det</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Materials Science">cond-mat.mtrl-sci</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Medical Physics">physics.med-ph</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1515/bams-2013-0108">10.1515/bams-2013-0108 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Plastic scintillators for positron emission tomography obtained by the bulk polymerization method </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Kap%C5%82on%2C+%C5%81">艁ukasz Kap艂on</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Kochanowski%2C+A">Andrzej Kochanowski</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Molenda%2C+M">Marcin Molenda</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Moskal%2C+P">Pawe艂 Moskal</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Wieczorek%2C+A">Anna Wieczorek</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Bednarski%2C+T">Tomasz Bednarski</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Bia%C5%82as%2C+P">Piotr Bia艂as</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Czerwi%C5%84ski%2C+E">Eryk Czerwi艅ski</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Korcyl%2C+G">Grzegorz Korcyl</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Kowal%2C+J">Jakub Kowal</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Kowalski%2C+P">Pawe艂 Kowalski</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Kozik%2C+T">Tomasz Kozik</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Krzemie%C5%84%2C+W">Wojciech Krzemie艅</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Nied%C5%BAwiecki%2C+S">Szymon Nied藕wiecki</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Pa%C5%82ka%2C+M">Marek Pa艂ka</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Pawlik%2C+M">Monika Pawlik</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Raczy%C5%84ski%2C+L">Lech Raczy艅ski</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Rudy%2C+Z">Zbigniew Rudy</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Salabura%2C+P">Piotr Salabura</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Gupta-Sharma%2C+N">Neha Gupta-Sharma</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Silarski%2C+M">Micha艂 Silarski</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=S%C5%82omski%2C+A">Artur S艂omski</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Smyrski%2C+J">Jerzy Smyrski</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Strzelecki%2C+A">Adam Strzelecki</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Wi%C5%9Blicki%2C+W">Wojciech Wi艣licki</a> , et al.

The dis- cussed detector offers improvement of the Time of Flight (TOF) resolution due to the use of fast plastic scintillators and dedicated electronics allowing for sam- pling in the voltage domain of signals with durations of few nanoseconds. In this paper we show that recovery of the whole signal, based on only a few samples, is possible. In order to do that, we incorporate the training signals into the Tikhonov regularization framework and we perform the Principal Component Analysis decomposition, which is well known for its compaction properties. The method yields a simple closed form analytical solution that does not require iter- ative processing. Moreover, from the Bayes theory the properties of regularized solution, especially its covariance matrix, may be easily derived. This is the key to introduce and prove the formula for calculations of the signal recovery error. In this paper we show that an average recovery error is approximately inversely proportional to the number of acquired samples. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1503.05188v3-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1503.05188v3-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 4 April, 2015; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 17 March, 2015; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> March 2015. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1503.00465">arXiv:1503.00465</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1503.00465">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/1503.00465">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1503.00465">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Instrumentation and Detectors">physics.ins-det</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Medical Physics">physics.med-ph</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.12693/APhysPolA.127.1491">10.12693/APhysPolA.127.1491 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Analysis framework for the J-PET scanner </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Krzemie%C5%84%2C+W">W.

We take advantage of the fact that for this kind of detectors amplitude and shape of registered signals depends strongly on the position where particle hit the detector. The reconstruction is based on determination of the degree of similarity between measured and averaged signals stored in a library for a set of well-defined positions along the scintillator. Preliminary results of validation of the introduced method with experimental data obtained by means of the double strip prototype of the J-PET detector are presented. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1502.07886v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1502.07886v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 6 August, 2015; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 27 February, 2015; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> February 2015. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Acta Phys.

The method is based on comparison of detector signals with results stored in a library of synchronized model signals registered for a set of well-defined positions of scintillation points. The hit position is reconstructed as the one corresponding to the signal from the library which is most similar to the measurement signal. The time of the interaction is determined as a relative time between the measured signal and the most similar one in the library. A degree of similarity of measured and model signals is defined as the distance between points representing the measurement- and model-signal in the multi-dimensional measurement space. Novelty of the method lies also in the proposed way of synchronization of model signals enabling direct determination of the difference between time-of-flights (TOF) of annihilation quanta from the annihilation point to the detectors. The introduced method was validated using experimental data obtained by means of the double strip prototype of the J-PET detector and $^{22}$Na sodium isotope as a source of annihilation gamma quanta.The detector was built out from plastic scintillator strips with dimensions of 5 mm x 19 mm x 300 mm, optically connected at both sides to photomultipliers,from which signals were sampled by means of the Serial Data Analyzer.Using the introduced method, the spatial and TOF resolution of about 1.3 cm ($蟽$) and 125 ps ($蟽$) were established, respectively. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1412.6963v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1412.6963v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 10 February, 2015; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 22 December, 2014; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> December 2014. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Nuclear Inst. and Methods in Physics Research A 775 (2015), 54-62 </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1407.8293">arXiv:1407.8293</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1407.8293">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1407.8293">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Instrumentation and Detectors">physics.ins-det</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="High Energy Physics - Experiment">hep-ex</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nima.2014.07.032">10.1016/j.nima.2014.07.032 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Novel method for hit-position reconstruction using voltage signals in plastic scintillators and its application to Positron Emission Tomography </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Raczynski%2C+L">L.

The J-PET collaboration investigates a possibility of construction of a PET scanner from plastic scintillators which would allow for single bed imaging of the whole human body. This paper describes a novel method of hit-position reconstruction based on sampled signals and an example of an application of the method for a single module with a 30 cm long plastic strip, read out on both ends by Hamamatsu R4998 photomultipliers. The sampling scheme to generate a vector with samples of a PET event waveform with respect to four user-defined amplitudes is introduced. The experimental setup provides irradiation of a chosen position in the plastic scintillator strip with an annihilation gamma quanta of energy 511~keV. The statistical test for a multivariate normal (MVN) distribution of measured vectors at a given position is developed, and it is shown that signals sampled at four thresholds in a voltage domain are approximately normally distributed variables. With the presented method of a vector analysis made out of waveform samples acquired with four thresholds, we obtain a spatial resolution of about 1 cm and a timing resolution of about 80 ps <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1407.8293v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1407.8293v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 31 July, 2014; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> July 2014. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1407.7395">arXiv:1407.7395</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1407.7395">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/1407.7395">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1407.7395">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Instrumentation and Detectors">physics.ins-det</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="High Energy Physics - Experiment">hep-ex</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Nuclear Experiment">nucl-ex</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Medical Physics">physics.med-ph</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nima.2014.07.052">10.1016/j.nima.2014.07.052 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Test of a single module of the J-PET scanner based on plastic scintillators </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Moskal%2C+P">P.

The main challenge of the conducted research lies in the elaboration of a method allowing application of plastic scintillators for the detection of low energy gamma quanta. In this article we report on tests of a single detection module built out from BC-420 plastic scintillator strip (with dimensions of 5x19x300mm^3) read out at two ends by Hamamatsu R5320 photomultipliers. The measurements were performed using collimated beam of annihilation quanta from the 68Ge isotope and applying the Serial Data Analyzer (Lecroy SDA6000A) which enabled sampling of signals with 50ps intervals. The time resolution of the prototype module was established to be better than 80ps (sigma) for a single level discrimination. The spatial resolution of the determination of the hit position along the strip was determined to be about 0.93cm (sigma) for the annihilation quanta. The fractional energy resolution for the energy E deposited by the annihilation quanta via the Compton scattering amounts to sigma(E)/E = 0.044/sqrt(E[MeV]) and corresponds to the sigma(E)/E of 7.5% at the Compton edge. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1407.7395v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1407.7395v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 29 August, 2014; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 28 July, 2014; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> July 2014. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">12 pages, 6 figures; Updated with editorial corrections related to publication in NIM A</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Nuclear Inst. and Methods in Physics Research A 764 (2014), pp. 317-321 </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1402.6840">arXiv:1402.6840</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1402.6840">pdf</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Instrumentation and Detectors">physics.ins-det</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1515/bams-2014-0002">10.1515/bams-2014-0002 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Determination of the map of efficiency of the J-PET detector with the GATE package </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Kowalski%2C+P">P.

Such strips constitute basic detection modules in a newly proposed Positron Emission Tomography which utilizes plastic scintillators instead of inorganic crystals. An algorithm simulating chain of Compton scatterings was elaborated and series of simulations have been conducted for the scintillator strip with the cross section of 5 mm x 19 mm. Obtained results indicate that secondary interactions occur only in the case of about 8% of events and out of them only 25$\%$ take place in the distance larger than 0.5 cm from the primary interaction. It was also established that light signals produced at primary and secondary interactions overlap with the delay which distribution is characterized by FWHM of about 40 ps. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1312.0250v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1312.0250v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 1 December, 2013; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> December 2013. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">Submitted to Bio-Algorithms and Med-Systems (14 pages, 9 figures)</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Bio-Algorithms and Med-Systems 10(2), 71-77 (2014) </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1311.6153">arXiv:1311.6153</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1311.6153">pdf</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Instrumentation and Detectors">physics.ins-det</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Data Analysis, Statistics and Probability">physics.data-an</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Medical Physics">physics.med-ph</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1515/bams-2013-0109">10.1515/bams-2013-0109 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> J-PET analysis framework for the prototype TOF-PET detector </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Krzemie%C5%84%2C+W">W.

Furthermore, it allows to measure time when analog signals cross a reference voltage at different threshold levels with a very high precision of $\sim$ 10ps (rms) and thus enables sampling of signals in a voltage domain. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1311.6127v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1311.6127v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 24 November, 2013; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2013. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">Submitted to Bio-Algorithms and Med.-Systems (6 pages, 6 figures)</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Bio-Algorithms and Med.-Systems 10(1), 41-45 (2014) </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1310.1614">arXiv:1310.1614</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1310.1614">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/1310.1614">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1310.1614">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Medical Physics">physics.med-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Nuclear Theory">nucl-th</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Instrumentation and Detectors">physics.ins-det</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.5506/APhysPolBSupp.6.1027">10.5506/APhysPolBSupp.6.1027 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> System Response Kernel Calculation for List-mode Reconstruction in Strip PET Detector </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Bia%C5%82as%2C+P">P.

To track charged particles, two systems consisting of a set of planar, closed-packed, self-supporting straw tube layers are under construction. The PANDA straw tubes will have also unique characteristics in term of material budget and performance. They consist of very thin mylar-aluminized cathodes which are made self-supporting by means of the operation gas-mixture over-pressure. This solution allows to reduce at maximum the weight of the mechanical support frame and hence the detector material budget. The PANDA straw tube central tracker will not only reconstruct charged particle trajectories, but also will help in low momentum (< 1 GeV) particle identification via dE/dx measurements. This is a quite new approach that PANDA tracking group has first tested with detailed Monte Carlo simulations, and then with experimental tests of detector prototypes. This paper addresses the design issues of the PANDA straw tube trackers and the performance obtained in prototype tests. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1307.4537v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1307.4537v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 17 July, 2013; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> July 2013. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">7 pages,16 figures</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> IEEE Xplore publication 2013 </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1305.5562">arXiv:1305.5562</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1305.5562">pdf</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Instrumentation and Detectors">physics.ins-det</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="High Energy Physics - Experiment">hep-ex</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Nuclear Experiment">nucl-ex</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Medical Physics">physics.med-ph</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> STRIP-PET: a novel detector concept for the TOF-PET scanner </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Moskal%2C+P">P.

We present the device allowing for determination of the impact position as well as time and deph of interaction of the annihilation gamma quanta. The device is comprised of scintillation chamber consisting of organic scintillators surrounding the body of the patient. We discuss two possible solutions: (i) the tomograph built out of scintillator strips, and (ii) the tomograph built out of the scintillator plates. The application of the fast scintillators will enable to take advantage of the difference between time of the registration of the annihilation quanta. The invented method will permit to use a thick layers of detector material with the possibility of measuring the depth of the gamma quantum interaction (DOI) and the determination of their time of flight (TOF), and will allow for increasing the size of the diagnostic chamber without a significant increase of costs. The method is a subject of two patent applications which are based on the techniques used in the particle physics experiments. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1305.5187v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1305.5187v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 22 May, 2013; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> May 2013. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">Proceedings of the MCSB 2010 Conference, Krakow, 21-22.05.2010</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Bio-Algorithms and Med-Systems Vol. 7, No. 2, 73 (2011) </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1207.6581">arXiv:1207.6581</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1207.6581">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1207.6581">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Instrumentation and Detectors">physics.ins-det</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Technical Design Report for the: PANDA Micro Vertex Detector </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=PANDA+Collaboration"> PANDA Collaboration</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Erni%2C+W">W.

The tasks of the STT are the measurement of the particle momentum from the reconstructed trajectory and the measurement of the specific energy-loss for a particle identification. Dedicated simulations with full analysis studies of certain proton-antiproton reactions, identified as being benchmark tests for the whole PANDA scientific program, have been performed to test the STT layout and performance.
