Characterization of a mid-sized Li foil multi-wire proportional counter neutron detector
A 550 cm thermal neutron detector was constructed with five parallel sheets of 75 mm thick Li foil (95% enrichment) spaced 1.63 cm apart. Anode wire banks containing a plurality of anode wires were strung on both sides of each foil, six banks in total. The chamber was backfilled with P-10 proportional gas and over-pressured to 1.1, 1.5, 2.0, and 2.8 atm (111, 151, 202, and 284 kPa). The design ...
متن کاملThe C.A.T. Pixel Proportional Gas Counter Detector
A simple geometry of real pixel gas detectors has been evaluated that circumvents the limitations of a microstrips, namely aging, gain drift and flux limitation due to the dielectric charging. A good resolution has been obtained while preserving a large active size and a high gain and counting rate capabilities.
متن کاملCompact Tissue-equivalent Proportional Counter for Deep Space Human Missions
Effects on human health from the complex radiation environment in deep space have not been measured and can only be simulated here on Earth using experimental systems and beams of radiations produced by accelerators, usually one beam at a time. This makes it particularly important to develop instruments that can be used on deep-space missions to measure quantities that are known to be relatable...
متن کاملDevelopment and performance of a position-sensitive proportional avalanche counter tracking system
Most of our current understanding in nuclear physics has come from using stable targets and beams. Stable nuclei represent only a small fraction of the total nuclei that can exist, but do not exhibit many of the exotic proprieties seen in nuclei far from stability, such as halos [1]. The ability to study unstable nuclei has opened up a vast new range of physics to be explored. The decay of thes...
متن کاملRate effects in a proportional counter with resistive cathode
In this work, the rate effects associated with the gain of detectors with resistive electrodes are considered. To study these effects it was decided to use the classical proportional counter geometry, with a cylindrical glass tube as the cathode, rather than parallel plate devices. Indeed, the generality of the information obtained is not affected and the cylindrical proportional counter geomet...
