摘要: BeppoSAX/PDS experiment is one of four narrow eld instruments the BeppoSAX payload, that also includes two wide cameras. The goal PDS to extend energy range hard X{rays. operative 15 300 keV, where can perform sensitive spectral and tempo- ral studies celestial sources. detector com- posed 4 actively shielded NaI(Tl)/CsI(Na) phoswich scintillators with a total geometric area 795 cm 2 aeld view 1 :3 (FWHM). In this paper we describe design discuss its functional perfor- mance calibration data analysis system.
