Response of pilot U scintillator to heavy ions (original) (raw)

This study investigates the response of Pilot U scintillator to heavy ions, focusing on the light output variation due to different ion charges and masses. Systematic measurements have been conducted for various ions below 300 MeV, aiming to understand particle identification and to inform theoretical models of scintillation phenomena. The findings suggest a relationship between the light output and the energy of the incident particles, revealing potential applications for enhancing detection systems.
