  • Detector trouble shooting
  • Preamplifier adjustments and repair
  • Vacuum pumping and annealing
  • Cooling maintenance (LN2, Mechanical)

Taking place over 3 days, this course combines classroom discussions with hands-on experience to provide guidance on what causes and how to remedy poor energy resolution, distorted peaks, missing signal, and drifting peaks. The training covers the requirements of a typical hardware/software configuration and then moves into how each component can affect the detector system. The course is instructor-led with sufficient time for lab exercises with actual instrumentation used in a typical detector system.
