International Workshop on Radiation Imaging Detectors iWoRID 2011 Contribution ID : 194 Simulation and Measurement of Absorbed Dose from 137 Cs gammas using a Si Timepix Detector Content : The TimePix readout chip is a hybrid pixel detector with over 65k independent pixel elements. Each pixel contains its own circuitry for charge collection, counting logic, and readout. When coupled with a Silicon detector layer, the Timepix chip is capable of measuring the charge, and thus energy, deposited in the Silicon. Measurements using a NIST traceable 137Cs gamma source have been made at Johnson Space Center using such a Si Timepix detector, and this data is compared to simulations of energy deposition in the Si layer carried out using FLUKA. Primary authors : Mr. STOFFLE, Nicholas (University of Houston) Co-authors : Prof. PINSKY, Lawrence (University of Houston) ; Dr. EMPL, Anton (University of Arkansas) ; Mr. SEMONES, Edward (NASA Johnson Space Center) Presenter : Mr. STOFFLE, Nicholas (University of Houston) Session classification : Poster Mini Talks Track classification : Sensor Materials, Device Processing & Technologies Type : Poster presentation
