Abstract
A method and device are provided for obtaining the energy of nuclear radiation from a scintillation detector system for the measurement of nuclear radiation the device comprising a scintillation crystal, a light readout detector and a fast digital sampling analog to digital converter. The method comprises obtaining the anode current at the LRD for at least one scintillation event with N photo electron charges at the entrance of the LRD, sampling the measured anode current, obtaining the function of the scintillation pulse charges Q(N, G) at the anode of the LRD from said scintillation events, obtaining the RMS of the noise power charge Q(N, G), obtaining the function Q(N) by calculating the ratio of Q(N, G) and Q(N, G), obtaining the constant gradient k from the function Q(N)=Q(N, G)/Q(N, G)=k*N, and obtaining N.
