Assessment

This issue has not been assessed yet.

Description

  • Detector material specification (what level of detail can be provided), see BulkMaterial
  • Do we need “stretchable” TOF bins (i.e. keep number of TOF bins fixed, as opposed to keep "length" of TOF bin fixed)? We believe that all scanners use the latter. Related is #182
  • What types of coincidence policy do we need to support. See #21
  • Do we need flags for broken/unreliable modules? See #88
  • Is a 32-bit unsigned int enough to enumerate all possible (single) detection bins (usually number of "crystals" * number of energy windows)?
  • Is it ok to assume dead-time and singles are recorded at either module or element level? (see #119)
  • At present, we have no independent calibration factor (i.e. it is absorbed into the other components). Is this sufficient? (e.g. does the calibration factor change more often than the other components?) Edit: the calibration factor is now part of DetectionEfficiencies
