Abstract

In Hyperball-J experiments, the lutetium oxyorthosilicate (Lu ₂SiO₅:Ce, LSO) scintillators are constantly used to monitor and calibrate the Ge detectors. The LSO crystal has ¹⁷⁶Lu as a natural radioactive source. A new CsI:Na crystal that contains a ¹³³Ba radioactive source was developed in this study. This developed crystal can be used for detector calibration instead of LSO scintillators.
