We characterized the performance of abiased superconducting nanowire to detect X-ray photons. The device, made of a 10 nm thin NbTiN film and fabricated on a dielectric substrate (SiO2, Nb3O5) detected 1000 times larger signal than anticipated from direct X-ray absorption. We attributed this effect to X-ray induced generation of secondary...

Nonproportional response of the scintillation yield of NaI:Tl was measured using highly monochromatic synchrotron irradiation ranging from 9–100 keV. Special attention is paid to the x-ray escape peaks. They provide us additional information about photon response in the range 0.9–12 keV. A rapid variation in the photon response curve is observed...

Single crystals of Ce-activated BaCl2, BaBr2, and BaI2 were investigated under x-ray and ?-ray excitation. The Ce3+-related x-ray excited luminescence in BaBr2 shifts significantly to longer wavelengths upon increasing the doping level from 0.1% to 1%. In Ce-activated BaCl2 only a slight shift can be observed. BaI2 does not show any Ce3+-related...
