Comparison of light outputs, decay times, and imaging performance of a ZnS(Ag) scintillator for alpha particles, beta particles, and gamma photons

ZnS(Ag) is a scintillator mainly used for alpha particle detection because of the high light output for alpha particles. However, the light output and decay times of ZnS(Ag) for beta particles or gamma photons are not obvious. We therefore measured and compared the light outputs and decay times of Z...
