[Gate-users] system choice for energy centroid

[Marc Chamberland]

Hi Devin,

I’m not sure I understand what you’re trying to do and what failed to work. Can you provide more details?

Also, did you attach a crystalSD to your plates, as outlined here: http://wiki.opengatecollaboration.org/index.php/Users_Guide_V7.1:Attaching_the_sensitive_detectors#The_crystalSD

Cheers,
Marc

Hello gate users,

I am simulating a PET system with two plates. I would like to use the takeEnergyCentroid option for the digitizer's readout. However, I need to attach a volume to a 'crystal' of a system (according to the error message I keep getting). Thus a PETscanner system cannot work since it uses level1-4 and layers for system attachment. The I tried a cylindricalPET system with a ring repeater of 2, and that also didn't work. Interestingly, cylindricalPET works for a 4+ plate ring system, but no singles or coincidences in the output for 2-3 plates (with only the ring repeat number changed). Can anyone offer any insight as to what I should do?

Regards,
Devin Van Elburg
