This new approach is based on the combination of the pulse-height weighting technique with a total energy detection system that features gamma-ray imaging capability (i-TED). The latter allows one to exploit Compton imaging techniques to discriminate between true capture gamma-rays arising from the sample under study and background gamma-rays coming from contaminant neutron (prompt or delayed) captures in the surrounding environment. A general proof-of-concept detection system for this application is presented in this paper together with a description of the imaging method and a conceptual demonstration based on Monte Carlo simulations.", optnote="WOS:000376713700010", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=2686), last updated on Fri, 17 Jun 2016 14:20:21 +0000", issn="0168-9002", doi="10.1016/j.nima.2016.04.002", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/1401.2083", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nima.2016.04.002", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="1401.2083", language="English" }
