Apparatus, system, and method for radiation hardened plastic and flexible elastomer scintillator

Patent ·
OSTI ID:1892847
A scintillating material that is a radiation hardened plastic and flexible elastomer is disclosed. The material is useful in a wide range of high energy particle environments and can be used to create detectors. Such detectors can be used in physics experiments or in medical treatment or imaging. The scintillator can be radiation hardened so as to allow for an extended lifetime over other materials.
