An. Sudarkin et al., HIGH-ENERGY RADIATION VISUALIZER (HERV) - A NEW SYSTEM FOR IMAGING INX-RAY AND GAMMA-RAY EMISSION REGIONS, IEEE transactions on nuclear science, 43(4), 1996, pp. 2427-2433
We present a description and results of the operation for gamma-ray an
d X-ray objects for the compact visualization system high-energy radia
tion visualizer (HERV), The imaging in this system is based on use of
a conical collimator, scintillator plate, and image intensifier as a d
etector and CCD matrix as a readout device, The use of HERV as a two-d
imensional X-ray image visualizer for the Compton scatter inspection s
ystem was considered and first results are discussed, The possibility
of using different hexagonal-coded apertures imaging for HERV is discu
ssed and results of Monte Carlo simulation and experiments with optica
l analog of coded aperture are presented.
