Abstract
A direction determination device for determining a direction of a source of ionizing radiation relative to the direction determination device includes at least two radiation detection devices with longitudinally designed detection volumes, the at least two radiation detection devices are arranged at an angle relative to one another. A first radiation detection device is designed as a symmetry-maintaining angle-dependent radiation detection device. A second radiation detection device is designed as a symmetry-breaking angle-dependent radiation detection device.
