Virtual segmentation of a small contact HPGe detector: inference of hit positions of single-site events via pulse shape analysis

Abstract Exploring hit positions of recorded events can help to understand and suppress backgrounds in rare event searches. We propose a pulse shape analysis method to discriminate single-site events (SSEs) in the inner and outer layer of a small contact P-type germanium detector (HPGe). SSEs in the...
