Abstract

CERN Radiation Protection group has recently developed a novel radiation survey meter called B-RAD able to operate in the presence of a strong magnetic field. The B-RAD will be equipped with a series of probes for gamma dose rate, gamma spectrometry and surface contamination measurements. The feasibility of developing a probe for neutron dose rate and possibly spectral measurements is being investigated. The determination of the breakdown voltage of the SiPM as well as its uniformity between the pixels was performed. The energy resolution of the Cs2LiYCl6:Ce (CLYC) scintillator was measured with the SiPM and compared with two different PMT models: Bialkali and Superbialkali. The temperature sensitivity of the system CLYC + SiPM was measured from -10 to + 40°C.
