  328   Thu Jun 15 03:40:17 2017 BRIKEN collaborationZ-scaning 252Cf Jun17

A scaning with 252Cf along the Z-axis of the neutron detector is carried out. The setup is similar to the scaning carried out in October 2016.

Observations:

- Clovers are put inside the detector without voltage.

- AIDA detector is out of the moderator.

- Position in Z is given with respect to the moderator side opposite to AIDA.

- The shielding for in-beam neutrons is mounted. It corresponds to HDPE 2.5cm + 1mm Cd + 20cm HDPE. The distance moderator to shieldind is 34.6mm

- There are two additional neutron sources in the Hall, aprox 10m from the detector. One 241AmBe (30mC) and 244Cm/O13 (500mC). Both sources produce an increase of the neutron background up to approx1n/s (x10 higher).

- Datafiles are located in the dac computer, path:

  150   Fri Nov 11 08:07:18 2016 BCR SG NTBBRIKEN Hit Visualization

These are the files used to create and visualize the hit patterns of the BRIKEN detector.

There are three files needed plus one input data file. The three files are "HybridBRIKENPhysicalHistogram.hpp", "HybridBRIKENPhysicalHistogram.cpp", and "HybryidBRIKEN_Tube_Info_1.txt". These files are attached to this eLog entry.

In order to run this type in a terminal

root -l HybidBRIKENPhysicalHistogram.cpp+

The plus is important, it tells ROOT to compile this with the gcc compiler and then run that compiled version of the code. It runs slow, if at all, in the ROOT C++ interpreter CINT.

The code has been tested with ROOT v5.32 and v5.34, not version 6.

At the bottom of the HybidBRIKENPhysicalHistogram.cpp file is the "main program". In it you can set the input data file, which should be a BRIKEN online root output file, and the 3He energy cuts. It is easiest if all the files are in the same folder. If there are any questions please feel free to email B. Charles (Charlie) Rasco.

  352   Thu Oct 26 09:01:53 2017 BCRNumber of Counts vs Expected Efficiency for Proposals

 

Here is a doc with an estimate of the statistical uncertainty P1n and P2n as a function of the number of implant-beta correlations for future experiments.

This will hopefully be useful for the new PAC proposals as an estimate for the time needed to measure a certain precision.

If there are any questions please feel free to email me (Charlie Rasco).

Enjoy the fine reading.
