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


-These are the notes from the July 15th, 2008 meeting.
