Au-196

crucible #5 Gold + Sand irradiation

The link below will take you to an analysis of the photon spectrum observed when a mixture of Au + Sand in a crucible is irradiated for 1 hour using a 44 MeV, 2kW electron beam incident on a 4 mm W converter

5790 Ba-133 source, TDC not getting hits
5791 Ba-133 source , TDC not getting hits
5792 Ba-133 source, TDC not getting hits
5817 Gold foils, only counting with detector 180-3 (no TDC) 8 min 2 sec long, 556 Hz
5818 Ni foil F1, only counting with detector 180-3 (no TDC) 6 min 31 sec long, 399 Hz
5819 Ni foil B1, only counting with detector 180-3 (no TDC) 7 min 36 sec long, 417 Hz
5820 empty, only counting with detector 180-3 (no TDC) 8 min 18 sec long, 396 Hz
5821 Ba-132, only counting with detector 180-3 (no TDC) 6 min 1 sec long, Hz

Group 2

Due to the low rates we reconfigured the setup putting the two detectors closer together


Run Description
5822 Ba-132 + Al rod 130100-012, only counting with detector 180-3 (no TDC) 10 min 56 sec long, 459 Hz
5823 empty rod 130100-011, only counting with detector 180-3 (no TDC) 11 min 49 sec long, 439 Hz
5825 Y-88 130100-010, only counting with detector 180-3 (no TDC) 19 min 7 sec long, 500 Hz
5826 Au-196, only counting with detector 180-3 (no TDC) 8 min 38 sec long, 1096Hz
5827 sand+crucible, only counting with detector 180-3 (no TDC) 8 min 10 sec long, 989Hz
5828 Coincidence, sand+crucible, only counting with detector 180-3 (no TDC) 15 hrs, 4 min 21 sec long, 47Hz, Det B HV OFF, Det B Coincidence window was more than 400 nsec
5829 Coincidence, Au+sand+crucible #5 , 200 ns Coincidence window, no TDC hrs, min sec long, 23 Hz, Det B HV ON, ROC crashed after 45 hours 28 minutes, 285302 events recorded, scaler says 199440 seconds for run time=> 55 hours, I think the run lasted 2 hours assuming a 40 Hz counting rate and 285302 events, I think Det B warmed up during run, noise went high and high counting rate made ROC crash.
5831 Coincidence, Au Foil, only counting with detector 180-3 (no TDC) 35 min 6 sec long, 90Hz, Det B HV OFF, Det B Coincidence window was more than 400 nsec, Ignore run Det B in trigger
