Abstract
It is shown that the direction of incidence of photons and neutrinos with energies above 0.5 MeV can be determined by pulse shape analysis of recoil electron signals in a liquid ionization chamber. The experiments were carried out using a liquid argon ionization chamber. For 0.622–3.2 MeV photons the direction of incidence can be determined within the cone ±(40°−70°) depending on energy. A detailed Monte-Carlo calculation demonstrated the possibility of the suppression of the isotropic background by an order of magnitude for a recoil electron energy above 2–3 MeV.
