Abstract :
This work describes the measurements and obtained results for various photo-coupling configurations of a CsI(Tl) scintillation crystal with SiPM and the impact of alternating operating conditions on the unstable features. An investigation of the dominant parameters, such as noise level, resolution, and dynamic range, is discussed and concluded.
