In the measurement of fluorescent lifetime based on time correlation-single photon counting technique by means of TAC, due to the contamination of multi-photons a deviation of fluorescent lifetime measured from the expected value is experimentally studied. A correction function instead of a simple exponential function is used to fit the experiment data. The validation of the correction function is checked using the experimental data of several test samples: YAP, NaI(T1) and LSO. The results show that the correction function well fits the data and the reasonable fluorescent lifetimes are obtained.
The aging test of multigap resistive chamber (MRPC) was carried out under conditions of irradiation from a 137Cs γ source facility. The total charge induced at the anode or at the cathode of the MRPC module was about 29 mC. The gamma dose rate was 10-2 Gy·h-1, and the total accumulative radiation dose was 4.3 Gy. After irradiation, there was an obvious degradation in the properties of the MRPC module.
