Abstract

A method for determining position and energy in scintillation detectors includes determining a photoconversion energy and a photoconversion position of particles triggering scintillation events, in an iteration-free manner, calculated from a distribution of scintillation light released by one or more of the scintillation events. The distribution of scintillation light is scanned by a photodetector.
