Energy scale calibration of KEDR detector tagging system

Energy Calibration of the JLab Bremsstrahlung Tagging System

In this report, we present the energy calibration of the Hall B bremsstrahlung tagging system at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. The calibration was performed using a magnetic pair spectrometer. The tagged photon energy spectrum was measured in coincidence with ee pairs as a function of the pair spectrometer magnetic field. Taking advantage of the internal linearity of the p...

The MuLan Detector Calibration System

The MuLan experiment has been designed to make a precision measurement of the muon lifetime to one part per million. The experiment uses 340 scintillation detectors to detect the positron produced in the muon's decay. Members of the James Madison University Physics department have been responsible for the design and implementation of a calibration system for the MuLan detector. The calibration ...

Full Energy Peak Efficiency Calibration of HPGe detector by MCNP

Design of 3mm Band Detector Indoor Calibration System

A 3mm band detector indoor calibration system is introduced in this paper, which is based on a STM32 embedded system. This embedded control system includes noise source control circuit, database circuit, a real time clock circuit, humidity and temperature sensor circuit, PS/2 interface circuit and SD card interface circuit. And a database, which contains radiation characteristics of metal targe...

The Case for a Kilometer - Scale High Energy Neutrino Detector ∗

Doing astronomy with photons of energies in excess of a GeV has turned out to be extremely challenging. Efforts are underway to develop instruments that may push astronomy to wavelengths smaller than 10 −14 cm by mapping the sky in high energy neutrinos instead. Neutrino astronomy, born with the identification of thermonuclear fusion in the sun and the particle processes controlling the fate of...
