This experimental setup does not contain BorAl
General run plan
- Run source in and source out in experimental setup and background subtract with NaI
- Move the source to different locations along the source tunnel and plot the different distances and count rates
- Run source in and source out in experimental setup and background subtract with He3
- Move the source to different locations along the source tunnel and plot the different distances and count rates
I will upload some models of the setup when I have updated the model to include the source and detector
