Abstract
A new method for, processing signals produced by high resolution, larg e volume semiconductor detectors is described. These detectors, to be used in the next generation of spectrometer arrays for nuclear researc h (i.e. EUROBALL, etc.), present a set of problems like resolution deg radation due to charge trapping and ballistic deficit effects, poor re solution at a high count rate, long term and temperature instability, etc.. To solve these problems a new approach based on digital Moving W indow Deconvolution (MWD) has been developed.
