Krech A. Radiation resistant composite scintillation materials

The thesis is devoted to design the new scintillation material, namely radiation-resistant composite scintillators and radiation resistant shifting light guide material. It provides the necessary basis for the design of the radiation-resistant detectors based on composite scintillation materials. It analyzes the features of the manifestation radiation resistance of composite scintillators and possible mechanisms of radiation damage and changes in composite scintillators under the action of ionizing radiation. The practical significance of the work is determined by broad prospects for the use of the composite scintillators in modern technological developments of the scintillation technology as well as in high-energy physics. Such systems are radiation-resistant to high doses of radiation. The possibility of obtaining extra-large area of detector makes the composite scintillators unique. Development the radiation resistance shifting light guides material makes a range of studies sufficient to design the radiation-resistant detector systems. Proposed in the thesis, the technological approach may be used to create a composite scintillators based on other materials as well as to design scintillation detectors for some tasks of ionizing radiation registrations.
