| 摘要 |
The invention relates to a method for detecting and distinguishing elementary particles, such as protons, ions, electrons, neutrons, photons, or the like, in a detector (1), in particular a diamond detector, wherein an electric field is applied to the detector (1) and wherein, when a particle passes through the detector (1), a charge pulse is generated in the detector (1) and each charge pulse is then converted into an electric signal. According to the invention, the detector (1) is divided into at least two sub-regions (D1, D2) separated from each other, to which an electric field is respectively applied separately, and each charge pulse is read via a common read electrode (4) of the detector (1) located between the sub-regions (D1, D2). Furthermore, the invention relates to an apparatus for detecting and distinguishing elementary particles, through which, with a simple structure of a detector (1), various elementary particles and/or particles of different energy can be detected and distinguished from one another. |
