Abstract
A high light yield calcium iodide (CaI2) scintillator is being developed for an astroparticle physics experiments. This paper reports scintillation performance of calcium iodide (CaI2) crystal. Large light emission of 2.7 times that of NaI(Tl) and an emission wavelength in good agreement with the sensitive wavelength of the photomultiplier were obtained. A study of pulse shape discrimination using alpha and gamma sources was also performed. We confirmed that CaI2 has excellent pulse shape discrimination potential with a quick analysis.
