3. Detector response (detector perturbation effects)
Detector size:
a)
Volume averaging (the size of the detector relative to the size
of the radiation field)
Detector composition:
b)
Energy dependence
c)
Density of sensitive volume of the detector
d)
Atomic properties of the sensitive volume of the detector
e)
Influence of detector components other than its sensitive
volume (extra-cameral components)
