Abstract
In the present work we report a study of the light response of a CsI(Tl) crystal readout by a SiPM to low energy protons, accelerated by the Tandem Van der Graaf at the Laboratori Nazionali del Sud (LNS)-INFN, Catania, Italy.The light yield was measured for protons of different kinetic energies, from 2.5 MeV to 24 MeV. We also derived the light attenuation length.The results of this work indicate that a CsI coupled with a SiPM-based modern readout solution allows for the detection of low energy signals.
