| 英文摘要 | A automatic gain control system (AGC) is designed to continuously monitor and automatically control the gain of the phoswich detectors onboard the Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope (HXMT). It consists of a Am-241 radioactive source and a photo-detector. The Am-241 radioactive source is tagged within a plastic scintillator (BC440M). The scintillating photons produced by the decayed alpha particles from the radioactive source is readout by the photo-detector. The Multi-Pixel Photon Counter (MPPC) produced by Hamamatsu is used as the photo-detector for AGC. To verify the feasibility of its application in space environment, four MPPCs (S10362-33-050C) were irradiated by a beam of 23 MeV protons. The integrated proton fluence that exposed to the four MPPC samples are 1.0 x 10(8) p cm(-2), 2.0 x 10(8) p cm(-2), 4.0 x 10(8) p cm(-2) and 1.0 x 10(10) p cm(-2) respectively. It is found that the increment leakage current of the MPPC samples caused by irradiation damage increase linearly with the integrated fluence. The pulse-height resolution of the MPPC has deteriorated hardly after irradiation. When irradiated up to 1.1 x 10(9) cm(-2) 1 MeV equivalent neutrons, the MPPC completely lost its photon-counting capability but could still work as a photo-detector for AGC. The MPPC fails as a photo-detector for the AGC when the irradiated 1 MeV neutron equivalent fluences is up to 2.7 x 10(10) cm(-2). (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. |
