SOI Pixel Sensor for Gamma-Ray Imaging

Kavli Affiliate: Tadashi Orita | Summary:SOI (Silicon-On-Insulator) pixel sensor is promising technology for developing the high position resolution detector by integrating the small pixels and circuits in the monolithic way. The event driven (trigger mode) SOI based pixel sensor has also been developed for the application of X-ray astronomy with the purpose of reducing the […]

Development of the Pixelated Photon Detector Using Silicon on Insulator Technology for TOF-PET

Kavli Affiliate: Tadashi Orita | Summary:To measure light emission pattern in scintillator, higher sensitivity and faster response are required to photo detector. Such as single photon avalanche diode (SPAD), conventional pixelated photo detector is operated at Geiger avalanche multiplication. However higher gain of SPAD seems very attractive, photon detection efficiency per unit area is low. […]

Stratified shear flow instabilities in the non-Boussinesq regime

Kavli Affiliate: Kinfai Mak| First 5 Authors: Eyal Heifetz, Eyal Heifetz, , , | Summary:Effects of the baroclinic torque on wave propagation normally neglected under the Boussinesq approximation is investigated here, with a special focus on the associated consequences for the mechanistic interpretation of shear instability arising from the interaction between a pair of vorticity-propagating […]
