Polarization reconstruction algorithm for a Compton polarimeter
J. Phys.: Conf. Ser., 1024 :012041 (May 2018)
Abstract:
We present the technique of Compton polarimetry using X-ray detectors based on double-sided segmented semiconductor crystals that were developed within the SPARC collaboration. In addition, we discuss the polarization reconstruction algorithm with particular emphasis on systematic deviations between the observed detector response and our model function for the Compton scattering distribution inside the detector.
