Title: PULSE SHAPE DISCRIMINATION AND ENERGY RESPONSE OF CALCIUM TUNGSTATE CRYSTALS

Journal Article · · Nuclear Instr. & Methods

The scintillation response of calcium tungstate crystals to rays, protons, and alpha particles was studied. It is shown that there is a difference in shape between -ray and alpha particle pulses, and that this effect may be exploited to discriminate between particles. (auth)
