The Compton scattering of gamma rays is commonly detected using two detector layers, the first for detection of the recoil electron and the second for the scattered gamma. We have assembled detector modules consisting of scintillation pixels, which are able to detect and reconstruct the Compton scattering of gammas with only one readout layer. This substantially reduces the number of electronic channels and opens the possibility to construct cost-efficient Compton scattering detectors for various applications such as medical imaging, environment monitoring, or fundamental research. A module consists of a 4 × 4 matrix of lutetium fine silicate scintillators and is read out by a matching silicon photomultiplier array. Two modules have been tested with a 22 Na source in coincidence mode, and the performance in the detection of 511 keV gamma Compton scattering has been evaluated. The results show that Compton events can be clearly distinguished with a mean energy resolution of 12.2% ± 0.7% in a module and a coincidence time resolution of 0 . 56 ± 0 . 02 ns between the two modules.

By using recent data, we directly determine the dark matter (DM)-induced e± spectrum at the source from experimental measurements at the earth, without reference to specific particle physics models. The DM-induced gamma rays emitted via inverse Compton scattering are then obtained in a model-independent way. However, the results depend on the choice of the astrophysical e± background, which is not reliably known. Nevertheless, we calculate, as an illustration, the fluxes of gamma rays from the Fornax cluster in the decaying DM scenario with various astrophysical e± backgrounds. Without any assumptions on details of the DM model, the predictions turn out to be either in disagreement with or only marginally below the upper limits measured recently by the Fermi-LAT Collaboration. In addition, these DM-induced ICS gamma rays in the GeV range are shown to be almost independent of choices of cosmic ray propagation model and of DM density profile, when a given astrophysical e± background is assumed. This provides a strong constraint on decaying DM scenario as the gamma rays may be produced in other processes besides inverse Compton scattering, such as the bremsstrahlung and neutral pion decays.
