Abstract
Device for discrimination of electrical pulses output from at least one semiconductor radiation detector, comprising:at least one means (106a, 106b) of transforming pulses capable of increasing a value of a derivative of the pulse with respect to at least one parameter called the slope parameter,at least one integrator (108a, 108b) capable of establishing a “characterization” value for each transformed pulse, the said value being obtained by integration of the transformed pulse,pulse sort means (110) as a function of their characterization value.
