Scintillator Properties
Csi (Tl) / CsI (Na). This is a fairly rugged detector, with a high resistance to thermal and mechanical shock, it is also non hydroscopic. This material has a high gamma stopping power. |

Voltage Dividers & Preamplifiers
Scintillation detectors usually employ a Voltage Divider (VD) network to operate the PMT. This guide will help you understand the relevent choices specific to your application. |

Neutron Detection With Scintillators
In general neutrons are more difficult to detect than gamma rays because of their weak interaction with matter and their large dynamic range in energy. In some liquid scintilllators fast neutrons produce scintillations. |
