Abstract

Research and development is proceeding on a new /spl gamma/-ray detector array for nuclear physics: the Gamma-Ray Energy Tracking Array (GRETA). This array will consist of a spherical shell of highly segmented Ge detectors. By obtaining the energy and position of each interaction point, high efficiency and peak-to-total ratios can be obtained as compared with existing arrays. Here we discuss the computer algorithms that are needed to process the raw data and maximize the performance of the array. The results of these algorithms on Monte Carlo simulated data are presented.
