Gas proportional scintillation counters with a CsI-covered microstrip plate UV photosensor for high-resolution X-ray spectrometry

A xenon-filled gas proportional scintillation counter for X-ray spectrometry is described. The detector uses a microstrip plate covered with a thin CsI film as a photosensor rather than the usual photomultiplier tube. The achieved energy resolution for 5.9 keV X-rays is 12% when the microstrip is op...
