Radiation Detector & Imaging Group
Overview
The Jefferson Lab Radiation Detector & Imaging Group, headed by Dr. Drew Weisenberger, has unique technical capabilities applicable not only to nuclear physics radiation detector development, but also to application spin-offs of the detector technology. These capabilities include expertise in scintillation and light guide techniques, standard and position-sensitive photomultipliers, fast analog readout electronics and data acquisition, and on-line image formation and analysis. The group has been involved for several years in the development of high resolution gamma and positron imagers for biomedical applications and in novel X-ray imaging techniques.
