The presented paper describes a series of new Eu²⁺-activated scintillators of Ca₁-yEuyX₂, ACa₁-yEuyX₃, (A=K, Rb, Cs; X=Cl, Br, 0 ≤y≤0.08). All the single crystals were grown using the Bridgman-Stockbarger method and their operational characteristics were compared including affinity for atmospheric m...
