Abstract

Large volume coaxial Ge(Li) detectors have poor timing properties due to the slow and widely varying pulse shapes. To investigate the influence of detector geometry and the effectiveness of timing techniques, wide and narrow dynamic range time resolution measurements were made for three shapes of high efficiency detectors using four timing methods. The resolution obtained with true coaxial detectors was about a factor of two better than the others. Timing methods which attempt to compensate for pulse shape variations were substantially better than leading edge discrimination, especially for wide dynamic range.
