The LEAF picosecond pulse radiolysis facility at Brookhaven National Laboratory

The BNL Laser-Electron Accelerator Facility (LEAF) uses a laser-pulsed photocathode, radio-frequency electron gun to generate ù7 ps pulses of 8.7 MeV electrons for pulse radiolysis experiments. The compact and operationally simple accelerator system includes synchronized laser pulses that can be used to probe or excite the electron-pulsed samples to examine the dynamics and reactivity of chemic...

High Precision Thermal Neutron Detectors at Brookhaven National Laboratory

The Brookhaven National Laboratory electron beam ion source for RHIC.

As part of a new heavy ion preinjector that will supply beams for the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Space Radiation Laboratory, construction of a new electron beam ion source (EBIS) is now being completed. This source, based on the successful prototype Brookhaven National Laboratory Test EBIS, is designed to produce milliampere level curre...

Radaition Protection for the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider at the Brookhaven National Laboratory*

The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) is a high enlergy particle accelerator built to study basic nuclear physics. It consists of two counter-rotating beams of fully stripped gold ions that are accelerated in two rings to an energy of 100 GeVhucleon. The rings corisist of a circular lattic’e of superconducting magnets 3.8 km in circumference. The beams can be stored for a period of five to...
