Abstract
A detector for detection of ionizing radiation comprises a first cathode and a first anode between which a first voltage is applicable; an ionizable gas arranged at least partly between the first cathode and the first anode; a radiation entrance arranged such that ionizing radiation can enter and ionize the ionizable gas; and a read-out arrangement. The detector further comprises a second cathode and a second anode between which a second voltage is applicable; and a solid state ionizable material arranged between the second cathode and the second anode such that part of the radiation entered into the ionizable gas can propagate through the gas, enter the solid state material and ionize it; wherein the read-out arrangement is arranged for detection of the electrons and/or holes drifted towards the second anode and/or cathode, respectively, separately of detection of the electrons drifted towards the first anode.
