“…In a modern active Compton suppression shield with an HPGe as the primary detector, the problem of two or more photon coincidence can occur. This can be a serious problem, because the large shielding NaI(Tl) and HPGe detectors are working in AC mode to lower the Compton background [ 9 11 ]. Therefore, the two photons coming in cascade from the same nuclide decay may be simultaneously detected by both counters and consequently eliminated, lowering the counting efficiency for that particular γ line.…”

“…A : To reduce the lower detection limit of 13 N gas, we design a 𝛾-𝛾 coincidence measuring instrument including two detectors, a sampling vessel, and a summation and coincidence circuit in this work. The detector uses a 13 cm × 5 cm oversized Bi 4 Ge 3 O 12 (BGO) scintillator and 172 silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) tubes, which greatly reduce the instrument size while improving the coincidence detection efficiency.…”

“…The 13 N gas coincidence detection efficiency is improved by installing a multilayer metal absorber plate inside the cylindrical sampling vessel. Due to the short half-life of 13 N gas, it cannot be stored for a long time; additionally, it is difficult to obtain. It is not possible to directly scale the coincidence detection efficiency of this instrument using a 13 N gas source with known activity in engineering projects.…”

“…Ως παράδειγμα αναφέρεται ότι οι (Konki, et al, 2012) και (Zhang, et al, 2014) χρησιμοποιούν τη μέθοδο των σύμπτωσης φωτονίων (γ-γ coincidence method) με σκοπό να ανιχνεύσουν τα δύο φωτόνια ενέργειας 511 keV που εκπέμπονται μετά την εξαΰλωση του σωματιδίου β + που εκπέμπει το 22 Na, καθώς και το φωτόνιο ενέργειας 1274.6 keV. (Lal, et al, 1979), (Bondietti, et al, 1988), (Sato, et al, 1994), (Tokieda, et al, 1996), (Todorovic, et al, 2000), (Daish, et al, 2005), (Duenas, et al, 2003), (Ioannidou, et al, 2005), (Likuku, 2006), (Heinrich, et al, 2007).…”

“…Μέθοδοι γ-γ σύμπτωσης για την ανίχνευση β + ραδιενεργών ισοτόπων χρησιμοποιούνται αρκετά σε έρευνες πυρηνικής φυσικής (Beausang, et al, 1996), ανάλυση πυρηνικών αποβλήτων και προϊόντων νετρονικής ενεργοποίησης (Oshima, et al, 2008), καθώς και σε ιατρικές εφαρμογές όπου απαιτούνται δείγματα αναφοράς β + ισοτόπων (Nahle, et al, 2008), (de Oliveira, et al, 2012). Τέλος, έχει εφαρμοστεί και σε περιβαλλοντικές μελέτες για την ανίχνευση του κοσμικού ισοτόπου 22 Na (Fleishman, 2008), (Konki, et al, 2012), (Zhang, et al, 2014…”
