Abstract:
      A new type of solid-conversion gas detector is investigated for high energy X-ray industrial computed tomography (HECT). The conversion efficiency is calculated by using the EGSnrc Monte Carlo code on the Linux platform to simulate the transport process of photons and electrons in the detector. The simulation results show that the conversion efficiency could be more than 65%, if the X-ray beam width is less than about 0.2 mm, and a tungsten slab with 0.2 mm thickness and 30 mm length is employed...
