The Potential of Hybrid Pixel Detectors in the Search for the Neutrinoless Double-Beta Decay of 116Cd

Figure 4

Red: reconstructed distribution of measured total energy depositions in tracks of a 1 mm thick CdTe Timepix detector with 110  pixel pitch for irradiation with 2.614 MeV photons through its edge. Straight line tracks caused by muons and circular track structures caused by -particles have been removed before track analysis with the artificial neural network. Green: reconstructed total-energy distribution for events that should stem from pair production. Blue: reconstructed total-energy distribution of single-electron tracks.
