Scientific paper

IBIS is the gamma-ray imaging telescope onboard the ESA satellite INTEGRAL, which will be launched in 2001, PICsIT, the high-energy (140 keV-10 MeV) detector of IBIS, consists of a 64×64 units array. Each detection unit is a ≅0.8 cm2, 3 cm thick CsI(TI) crystal coupled with a photodiode. The engineering model (EM) of PICsIT has now been tested, calibrated, and integrated in IBIS for delivery to ESA. The calibration of PICsIT EM has allowed for the first time its scientific qualification in terms of: energy threshold, linearity, energy resolution, and photopeak efficiency (for events of various multiplicity). .
