摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a live time signal combining circuit capable of combining live time signals generated by a plurality of radiation detectors.SOLUTION: A live time signal combining circuit 100 combines live time signals 3A, 3B generated by a plurality of radiation detectors 10A, 10B, respectively, and includes: a storage unit 110 that stores information for identifying radiation detectors 10A, 10B on which radiation is incident based on radiation incident timing signals 2A, 2B, generated by respective radiation detectors 10A, 10B, indicative of timing at which radiation enters each radiation detector 10A, 10B; and a live time signal selection unit 120 that receives the live time signals 3A, 3B generated by the radiation detectors 10A, 10B, and selectively outputs either of the live time signals 3A, 3B based on the information for identifying the radiation detectors 10A, 10B.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
