摘要
The SPI Imaging Test Setup (SPITS) was built for experimental verification of the imaging properties of SPI. SPITS provides the possibility to validate simulations - needed for SPI image reconstruct,ion with laboratory measurements. SPITS consists of a coded mask and two Germanium detectors; no anti-coincidence system is used. The mask has the same Tungsten-alloy HURA coding as SPI. The two hexagonal Ge-detectors are housed in a common Al end cap. They can be moved to cover the 19 SPI Ge-detector positions. Mask and Germanium detectors are made of SPI-FM materials. The imaging properties of SPITS are being measured with radioactive sources 9 in from the detector plane. We obtain an angular resolution of about 2degrees at 1.8 MeV and a point-source location capability of SPITS of 15' at 1.2 MeV, both for strong sources.
