Scintillation Screen Investigations for High Energy Heavy Ion Beams at Gsi *
نویسنده
چکیده
Various scintillation screens were irradiated with Uranium at 269 MeV/u and Carbon at 296 MeV/u over a large intensity range as extracted from the GSI synchrotron SIS18. Their imaging properties were studied with the goal to achieve a precise transverse profile determination. Sensitive scintillators, ceramics and Quartz-glasses were investigated. A linear light yield over four orders of magnitude was found for some materials. For the various screens, remarkable differences up to 30 % concerning the image width were determined.

Scintillation light produced by low-energy beams of highly-charged ions
Measurements have been performed of scintillation light intensities emitted from various inorganic scintillators irradiated with low-energy beams of highly-charged ions from an electron beam ion source (EBIS) and an electron cyclotron resonance ion source (ECRIS). Beams of xenon ions Xe with various charge states between q=2 and q=18 have been used at energies between 5 keV and 17.5 keV per cha...

Fingerprinting excited nuclear states by γ-ray spectroscopy has been a viable tool to benchmark nuclear models for decades. Since contemporay nuclear structure investigations aim at the study and understanding of very exotic nuclei at the limits of stability and their decay properties, large and thus highly efficient γ-ray spectroscopy instruments are the basis for continued discoveries into th...
متن کاملMeasurements of heavy ion beam profiles in gases
Diagnostic of the ion beam profile is a very important part of the any heavy ion beam experiment. Usually, scintillators are used for these purposes. In the HHT-experimental area of GSI, uranium beams of up to 4,5·10 particle per bunch focused in the spot side of 0,8mm x 1,6mm are used [1]. The ion beam of such intensity is capable to destroy any usual scintillator by one shot. In this case, a ...
