摘要:
An information record/reproduction apparatus includes logical volumes that can be used as a variable-length record/reproduction area and a physical volume that has been divided into a plurality of fixed-length areas and is not subjected to record or reproduction. Allocation to the logical volume is made by combining the divided fixed-length physical volumes by a management unit, and the size of the information storage area can be set depending upon, for example, a category of information to be recorded. If the amount of information of high priority exceeds a size of a predetermined logical volume corresponding to the information while no unused physical volume is available, then the management unit detaches part of a logical volume in which information of low priority has been recorded, allocates the detached part to the logical volume corresponding to the information, and thus records the exceeding amount of information.
摘要:
A radiation measuring apparatus (20) includes a scatterer detector (10A), an absorber detector (10B) and a processing unit (12). Pixel electrodes (2) of the scatterer detector (10A) and the absorber detector (10B) are arranged such that a distance between centers of two neighbor pixel electrodes (2) is smaller than a mean free path of a recoil electron generated in the Compton scattering of an electromagnetic radiation. The processing unit (12) specifies and incidence direction of the electromagnetic radiation based on a recoiling direction to which the recoil electron recoils. In this way, an electron tracking-type Compton camera is realized which confines the incidence direction of the electromagnetic radiation by using the recoiling direction of the recoil electron in a Compton camera using a semiconductor detector.

A radiation measuring apparatus includes: a plurality of detector modules; and a processing unit. Each of the detector modules includes: a plurality of detectors; a plurality of analog signal processing sections, each of which is provided for a corresponding one of the plurality of detectors to carry out analog-digital conversion to an analog signal obtained from the corresponding detector to generate digital measurement data corresponding to the analog signal; and a digital processing section configured to transmit to the processing unit, digital communication data generated from the digital measurement data received from the plurality of analog signal processing sections. Each of the plurality of detectors is a scatterer detector functioning as a scatterer or an absorber detector functioning as an absorber. The processing unit generates a radiation source distribution image showing a spatial distribution of radiation sources based on the digital communication data received from the of detector modules.

A detector for a Compton camera includes a first radiation scattering layer; a second radiation scattering layer; and a radiation absorption layer disposed between the first radiation scattering layer and the second radiation scattering layer. The first radiation scattering layer and the radiation absorption layer configure at least a part of a first detector, and the second radiation scattering layer and the radiation absorption layer configure at least a part of a second detector.
