Electronics We Need to Collect

Electron Pulse

It'll hit our target and neutrons will be collected.

B _{n ^o} = .1

P _n = 1.04 MeV/c

1/V = 10nsec/foot => Detector must be > 5 feet from target.

Discriminating Signals

What we'd like to see with D20

What we'd like to see with H20 and our empty target

What We Need

• n ^o detectors
• High voltage
• Splitters
• Discriminators
• Scalers
• NIM bin
• FAN
• Oscilloscope
• Delay
• Cables

What Else Needs to be Done?

• Round up electronics
• Set up electrons
• NIM bin
• Mounting system
• Polarization
• Find as many scalers as possible.
• Check Dr. Dale's calculations
  • Given the collimator's 17" -> can the electron which makes a neutron get through the collimator?
• Will it burn a hole through the collimator?
  • 1 KH
  • 50 nsec pulse width
  • 80 MA peak current
  • 1 mm beam size
  • No Conduction
  • Radiated cooling
