“…The first main improvement due to the PSA is related to the fact that thanks to the position determination inside the crystals, the interaction path of a γ ray inside the array can be reconstructed, allowing for the detection of its full energy. Several algorithms have been developed over the years and are still being improved [216]. Reconstruction of the full energy of the γ rays, taking into account all the possible interactions processes: photo-electric, Compton-scattering, pair-creation at the typical energies observed in nuclear structure studies (few keV to hundreds of MeV) allows to reach performances in terms of P/T 4 close to the one of Compton-Suppressed arrays, with a huge efficiency gain.…”

Particle identification techniques are fundamental tools in nuclear physics experiments. Discriminating particles or nuclei produced in nuclear interactions allows to better understand the underlying physics mechanisms. The energy interval of these reactions is very broad, from sub-eV up to TeV. For this reason, many different identification approaches have been developed, often combining two or more observables. This paper reviews several of these techniques with emphasis on the expertise gained within the current nuclear physics scientific program of the Italian Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN).
