Abstract :
Gamma-ray spectroscopic systems with high efficiency and energy resolution have become important in many fields. Both aspects are provided in the system we present: an improved multi channel analyzer with digital signal processing and large volume stacked detectors with a Peltier cooling device. The paper shows the performance of the system in the laboratory and outdoor.
