Coinc Scope pictures

First pict with ADC gate

Pics using Spec Amps only and Peak Sensing ADC

Below is a picture of the spec amp ouput which is send to the Peak sensing ADC. The pulse is over 5 usec long indicating that pile up will happen when the detected incident particle rate is 1/5usec = 200 kHz. Pile up can also happen at lower rates so keep the singles counting rate below 10 kHz by moving the source farther away or waiting a few half lives.

Pics using noising inverting amps

Two HpGe detectors were used to detect coincidence gammas from Co-60 on 6/14/2013.

Co-60 will beta decay to Ni-60 giving off two gammas in coincidence having energies of 1173 and 1332.5 keV. The scope pictures below record the pulses from the HpGe detector that are in coincidence. I would have expected the charge output by the HpGe detector to be similar for the two gammas, but there are some that have less than half the charge. The could be the beta particles from the decay reaching one of the detectors in coincidence with one of the gammas.

I think the inverting amp is too noisy:

Noise 62613.png


The Signal is about 400 mV and the above noise is 37 mV peak-to-peak and it is syncronized with my integrate gate

Noise A62613.png

The voltage variations of the timing amp output in the region of the integrate gate are about +/- 10 mV

Coincidence Tests

Detector B is in ADC Ch9, TDC18


Detector 180-2 is in ADC CH5, TDC16


Run Number Description
5644 Na-22 1 uCi Source, set threshold on Ortec Const Fraction Timing Disc model 2035A to 10 mV
5645 Co-60 1 uCi Source, set threshold on Ortec Const Fraction Timing Disc model 2035A to 10 mV
5667 First Coincidence run, a coincidence is required in the logic unit, the coincidence window is about 1usec wide (probably a lot of accidentals), source is Co-60 1 uCi, CPAA App 080913.png, I have increased the CFD lower threshold to remove, via hardware, photon energies below 800 keV(Detector 180-3 CFD lower threshold was 200 and detector B was 150, the rate was about 6 Hz, run time was 14 minutes 22 seconds
5668 Now the logic unit is switched to OR mode, everything else is the same as run 5667, the rate was about 1 kHz, run time was 14 minutes 25 seconds
5669 Now the logic unit is switched to OR mode, and the CFD lower threshold is reduce to about 100 keV (10 on the CFD lower threshold pot) , everything else is the same as run 5667, the rate was about 3 kHz, run time was 10 minutes, The ROC crashed probably due to the 3 kHz rate.
5670 Now the logic unit is switched to AND mode, and the CFD lower threshold is reduce to about 100 keV (10 on the CFD lower threshold pot) , everything else is the same as run 5667, the rate was about 100 Hz, run time was 13 minutes 56 seconds
5671 same as run 5670 but now there is a 100 uCi Co-60 source, the rate was about 10 Hz, run time was 1 minutes, I think there is a lot of pile up so ignore this run
5672 same as run 5670 but now there is NO source, the rate was about 2 Hz, run time was 20 hours 6 minutes, The coincidence window of 1 usec seems to be way to wide.
5673 same as run 5667 but now the coincidence window is reduced from 1 usec to 10 ns, the rate was about 9 Hz, run time was 11 minutes, 32 seconds.
5674 same as run 5667 but now the Logic unit is in OR mode and the CFD output pulse width is 5 ns using a leading edge discriminator, the rate was about 3 kHz, run time was 1 minutes, 27 seconds.
5675 same as run 5673 but now the CFD output pulse width is 200 ns using a leading edge discriminator, the rate was about 70 Hz, run time was 8 minutes, 25 seconds.
5676 same as run 5674 but now the source is 100 nCi instead of 1 uCi, the CFD output pulse width is 2 ns using a leading edge discriminator, the rate was about 700 Hz, run time was minutes, seconds.
5685 same as run 5676 but the logic module is in AND mode, the CFD output pulse width is 100 ns using a leading edge discriminator, the rate was about 10 Hz, run time was 14 minutes, 1 seconds.
5686 same as run 5676 but the logic module is in OR mode, the CFD output pulse width is 100 ns using a leading edge discriminator, run time was 4 minutes, seconds. Something wrong with the readout, I see 4 peaks for Co-60 when there were only 2 in other runs (Maybe deadtime is too high and I am getting pile up?)
5687 same as run 5685 but source is Na-22 1 uCi, the CFD output pulse width is 100 ns using a leading edge discriminator, the rate was about Hz, run time was 4 minutes, seconds.
5688 same as run 5687 but increase low energy discrimination from 10 to 15, the CFD output pulse width is 100 ns using a leading edge discriminator, the rate was about Hz, run time was minutes, seconds.
5689 same as run 5687 but increase low energy discrimination from 15 to 30, the CFD output pulse width is 100 ns using a leading edge discriminator, the rate was about Hz, run time was minutes, seconds.
5691 same as run 5689 but source is now 1 uCi Co-60, the rate was about 2680 Hz, run time was minutes, seconds.
5692 same as run 5691 but Logic unit is in AND mode now, the rate was about 50 Hz, run time was 5 minutes, 54seconds. refill Det B with LN2
5693 same as run 5692 , the rate was about 50 Hz, run time was 3hours 14 minutes, 56 seconds. first run after filling Det B with LN2
5694 same as run 5692 but now the time window is < 2 ns, the rate was about 0.2 Hz, run time was 17 hours 41 minutes, 46 seconds. This run suggests a 12 nsec delay is needed for TDC16 (Detector 180-2). I will use the CFD for Detector 180-2 to delay the signal by 12 nsec.

Proposed Apparatus

We propose to acquire two 14 bit digitizers (flash ADCs), a muli-hit time-to-digital converter, and the associated NIM electronics needed to supplement our current VME based data acquisition system. The availability of precision analog digitizers and pipeline time to digital converters allows the construction of a data acquisition system to record the pulse shape and time information that will allow the reconstruction of individual coincidence events. The most common method used to record photon spectroscopy information does so by accumulating events thereby loosing any temporal information. We propose a coincidence counting system which records the wave form of each coincidence event along with a time stamp. The system will allow a post data taking analysis that can increase the coincidence time constraint beyond the original requirement and ascertain the degree of confidence in identifying the decay under consideration.

Knock a neutron out of natural gold such that an excited state of Au-196 remains that will undergo electron capture to Pt-196 with a half life of 6 days or 2% of the time it can be left in a meta stable state with two possible half lifes of 8 seconds or 9 hours.

Filling Ln2

Date Detector
8/7/13 B I filled Detector B for 20 minutes with the valve open 1/2 turn and the detector completely warm.
8/8/13 B Detector B was still cold after 26 hours, I filled it at 1/2 turn flow rate for 15 minutes


Configuring setup for Gold

We need to measure photon energies ranging from 80 to 200 keV. There is a lot of background at the low energies so we should try to install shielding and increase the Ortec amplification to the Co-60 lines so they are at the upper limit of the ADC.

Increased amplification and decrease CFD lower threshold so the PADC range covered photon energies between 100 and 1300 keV.

I see a coincidence line at 1274 +/- 4 keV and 511 +/- 1 keV 70 days after irradiating the Gold+Sand and the blank sample.


[math]{22\atop 11 }Na \rightarrow {22 \atop 10 }Ne^* + \beta + \nu_e \rightarrow {22 \atop 10 }Ne + \gamma (1275 keV)[/math]

The excited state of Ne-22 lasts only 3.6 ps before emitting the 1275 gamma so you can see the 1275 in coincidence with the 511. Since the Ne-22 is in an excited state the photon direction is not correlated with the positron emission. Na-22 has a 2.6 year half life.


I notice the photon energy observed in the coincidence measurement is 4 keV lower than the singles.
In the Ba-133 runs #5716 and #5718 I see the 355 line shift down by 1 keV in the coincidence measurements.
The 511 peak shifts down by 1keV in the coincidence measurements of run 5722 compares to the singles run # 5721
It seems my energy measurement accuracy is +/- 2 keV at best.


Will the Na-22 line be useful for normalizing?


8/16/13 Au irradiation

I had to choose between a low irradiation dose and being able to measure the spectrum 3 hours after irradiation, or a very high dose and measuring the spectrum after 55 hours (~6, 9 hour half lives).

A chose to first measure after the low irradiation dose. We waited 45 minutes after the 1 hour irradiation before entering the hall to retrieve the samples.


Irradiated Gold using Jack.

120 Hz, 42 MeV, 50 uA, 8 microsecond pulse width.

Gold+Sand+Crucible samples were irradiated for 1 hour.

Samples were located outside the hot cell at the rear near the mirror. The were about 6" away from beam center.

Sample Target ID numbers were changed

Gold + Sand + crucible = Sample # 5 = Target ID #130028 =130097

Sand + Crucible = Blank = Target ID #130033 =130096

Samples stored in source room bin A-48


Run Description
5731 Logic Unit in OR mode for Au+Sand+crucible blank sample (Target ID 130097). The CFD widths were 10 nsec making the coincidence window 20 nsec. running time 37 min, 44 sec. Rate was 660 Hz ( 100 Hz more than before Irrdiation), I see lines at 853 & 1370 keV that were not in background run 5721, 511 keV photon events have a higher rate if you compare the relative 511 rates between run 5731 and run 5721.
5732 Logic Unit in OR mode for Sand+crucible blank sample (Target ID 130096). The CFD widths were 10 nsec making the coincidence window 20 nsec. running time min, sec. Rate was 619 Hz ( 100 Hz more than before Irrdiation),The 853 and 1370 lines also appear in the blank sample (Aluminum in the crucible?)
5734 Logic Unit in AND mode for Au+Sand+crucible blank sample (Target ID 130097). The Discriminator widths were changed from 10 ns to 400 nsec making the coincidence window 800 nsec(The CFD width to the TDC is 20 nsec and not adjustable). running time 25 hours 17 min, 57 sec. Rate was 1.4 Hz


Run 5734 shows two lines at 586 & 612 keV

Na-22 Coincidence?

Run Description
5697 Coincidences for Na-22 source serial #129742 were observed, a 511 and a 1271(4?) were observed in coincidence. This confirms the Na-22 signal seen in the Sand+Gold samples. The 1271 peak is shiftwed from the 1274 peak shown in run 5698. The CFD widths were 2 nsec making the coincidence window 4 nsec. running time 3hrs , 6 min, 30 sec. Rate was 0.3 Hz
5698 singles for Na-22 source serial # were measured. rate was 2 kHz
