CH Task List
Notes from biweekly meetings
5/27/21
To do list
- Add dual timer configuration to plateau page (X)
- Continue to fine tune operating point of NaI detector and upload plateaus/signal:noise plots
- NaI attenuation measurements (with BorAl and try different types of poly (unborated, lavender, green))
- Begin experimental setup in clean room (X)
- Find signal to noise ratio
- Test HPGe detector
- Complete latest assigned training module (X)
- Speak to Roy Dunker who has agreed to let us use a second HPGe detector for back-to-back measurements in later phase of feasibility studies at ISU (X)
- How much lead to shield 200KeV gamma? How much poly to thermalize 2MeV neutrons? (DD generator shielding)
- Move painted lead bricks to clean room (X)
- Linked manual for HPGe detector to wiki pages (X)
- Rerun 1000V source in plateau data, looks like a discontinuity in the data set starting at the 150mV threshold. Could be my mistake, need to verify.
