INTRODUCTION
LuAP: 8.34 g/cm3, 0.3 photofraction,
365 nm emission, 17-18 ns decay time,
LY over 2xBGO (thickness!!)
difficult to grow, hence LuYAP

2x2x8 and 2x2x10mm pixels of
LYSO and LuYAP

Summary and conclusions
We have introduced 2R-model to describe LY dependence on height of differently shaped crystals
The model can be used to describe the pixel shaped crystals for PET
The model allows to estimate intrinsic scintillation light yield and loss parameter from measurements of vertical
and horizontal light yields
Intrinsic light yields of LuAP and LuYAP are close. Loss parameter of LuAP at 1.4 to 1.6 cm-1 is higher than
LuYAP (0.8 cm-1)
The loss consists of Rayleigh term, constant term and unidentified UV absorption
