CRIS geometry factors

[CRIS O geometry factors]
Oxygen geometry factor for individual detectors (Range 2-8), and their sum. Dashed line = sum over range 3-8 only.
[CRIS Si geometry factors]
Silicon geometry factor for individual detectors (Range 2-8), and their sum. Dashed line = sum over range 3-8 only.
[CRIS Fe geometry factors]
Iron geometry factor for individual detectors (Range 2-8), and their sum. Dashed line = sum over range 3-8 only.

CRIS Si(Li) Stack Detector Physical Parameters/Hybrid Gains & Offsets


Figure 1. Drawing of single and double-grooved detectors. Single-groove detectors have only one active area (inside groove) with area 69 cm^2, while double-groove detectors have two active areas (inside inner groove and between grooves) with areas 60 cm^2 and 8 cm^2 respectively. The smaller active area is used as a guard, to identify events having bad or inconsistent geometries.


Figure 2. Schematic of one (of four) CRIS solid-state detector stacks. Detectors E3 through E8 are paired, and their combined signal is output. The signals from the detectors are processed by a 4096-channel pulse-height-analysis system.
