Photon Bars on APA

5

  • Each APA has 10 Photon Bars and
  • there are 1x2x6=12 APAs
  • meaning 120 Photon bars

Calculate PD bar area from the gdml file

meaning:

  • Paddle_y = 4x2.54 = 10.16 cm
  • APAFrame_z = 230.0025 cm
  • Paddle_z = 230.0025 – 2x4x2.54
  • =209.6825cm
  • Paddle_Area= Paddle y x z =

2130.3742 cm^2

The length of the time window per event :

4.492 ms

Mean: 1162 Maximum: 2000 Center of the 3rd peak :1400 The average photon rates is therefore 0.146 photons per cm^2 per ms
