The recently developed praseodymium-doped lutetium aluminum garnet, LuAG(Pr), holds a strong potential for fast timing applications. In this study we report on the time response of LuAG(Pr) at Na-22 and Co-60 photon energies. The measurements were performed using a small crystal cube of 1 cm(3) coupled to a Hamamatsu R5320 photomultiplier tube. The full width at half maximum (FWHM) time resolution is found to be 147 +/- 2 Ps at Co-60 energies, and 238 +/- 2 Ps at Na-22. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
