Description
Alexander Wolfertz and co-authors describe a new class of particle detectors in this 2024 paper. The devices use a screen that flashes when a particle hits, plus a light booster and a fast camera. Each flash is read on its own, so single events can be placed in space and time with fine detail.
The paper explains how the detectors are built and how they differ from standard imaging types. It gives one build based on a known sensor chip and details the code that rebuilds single neutron hits from camera data. Tests at a neutron beam showed energy-resolved images. The authors propose the name LumaCam for the class.
