Characterization of segmented HPGe detectors using Pulse Shape Comparison methods

In this work we present the first results of a detector characterization technique named Pulse Shape Comparison Scan (PSCS), applied to a large volume segmented HPGe detector of the AGATA array. The experimental data were collected with the Liverpool University scanning system. Processing two sets of singles scan data acquired with a
¹³⁷
Cs (662 keV) gamma collimated source (with the collimation lines perpendicular one in respect to the other), it has been possible to extract the position response of 4 detector segments.
