Abstract
Several INTEGRAL n-type HPGe detectors have been irradiated by fast neutron s at different temperatures and their performances have been evaluated. The ir behaviour during warm-up and cool-down cycles following the irradiations show evidence for irreversible temperature effects above 100 K. The detect ors recovery after annealing was also studied. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B. V. All rights reserved.
