Summary

This paper describes the development and characterisation of a Compton camera system incorporating GAGG scintillator and SiPM detector technology for double photon emission coincidence imaging in nuclear physics applications. The work presents instrumental advances in radiation detection methodology, as suggested by the 2018 publication date and journal scope. The findings are primarily relevant to nuclear instrumentation and physics research rather than agricultural or nutritional science.

UK applicability

This paper has no direct applicability to UK farming systems, soil health, or human nutritional outcomes. It is a pure nuclear physics instrumentation study with no relevance to the Vitagri Pulse Brain collection focus.

Key measures

Detector performance metrics for coincidence imaging; photon detection efficiency; energy and spatial resolution of the GAGG-SiPM Compton camera system.

Outcomes reported

The study reports development and characterisation of a Compton camera system using GAGG (gadolinium aluminium gallium garnet) scintillator coupled with SiPM (silicon photomultiplier) detectors for double photon emission coincidence imaging.
