The energy spectra of neutrons produced by 35 and 46 MeV protons, 16 28 deuterons, 44 3 He ions on thick beryllium were measured at angles 0°, 15°, 45° with respect to the incident beams. time‐of‐flight method for from maximum down 1 MeV. Neutron dose rates obtained zero‐degree use available tissue kerma factors agree TE–TE ionization chamber measurements.
Techniques have been developed for the precise measurement of magnetic field shapes both steady-state and time-varying fields. A series measurements was used to refine design Cosmotron magnet examine effects on shape many parts component equipment. Measurements fields made in detail; they indicate a that conforms requirements. show good agreement with model predictions.
Operation of the JLab IR Upgrade FEL at CW powers in excess 10 kW requires sustained production high electron beam by driver ERL. This turn demands attention to numerous issues and effects, including: cathode lifetime; control beamline RF system vacuum during current operation; longitudinal space charge; transverse matching irregular/large volume phase distributions; halo management; management remnant dispersive effects; resistive wall, wake-field, heating chambers; break up instability;...
An intensive study of the behavior proton beam in Cosmotron has been made for period just after injection, before application any accelerating field. The actual orbits have traced small variations energy and time injection order to obtain optimum conditions. These used make further refinements on adjustments some components. required unaccelerated spiral inside wall vacuum chamber is as a basis normal routine.
Tartaric acid crystals illuminated with light from a carbon arc exhibit flow of current when connected to galvanometer without the aid an impressed battery. This actinoelectric effect is greatly dependent upon orientation crystal respect illuminating beam light. It shown that section can be chosen which shows series equi-potential lines its surface examined two probes while illuminated. The measured currents are about ${10}^{\ensuremath{-}12}$ ampere, arc. linear function intensity for lower...
The $^{64}\mathrm{Ni}$($^{4}\mathrm{He}$, $^{8}\mathrm{He}$)$^{60}\mathrm{Ni}$ reaction was used at 58-MeV bombarding energy with the quadrupole-dipole-dipole-dipole spectrograph, giving an improved value of $^{8}\mathrm{He}$ mass excess 31.611\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.017 MeV.NUCLEAR REACTIONS $^{8}\mathrm{He}$); $E=58$ MeV; measured.
The reaction $^{12}\mathrm{C}(^{16}\mathrm{O},p)^{27}\mathrm{Al}$ has been studied at ${E}_{\mathrm{lab}}(^{16}\mathrm{O})=36 \mathrm{and} 60$ MeV with high resolution. Narrow levels of $^{27}\mathrm{Al}$ are seen in the region ${E}_{x}=13 \mathrm{to} 20$ both measurements, and their locations suggest that is selectively sampling high-spin states yrast line.

The 288 blocks that constitute the Cosmotron magnet were tested, individually, to determine their magnetic characteristics. These measurements used arrange in an order would minimize azimuthal harmonics. remanent field was only parameter showed appreciable deviations.
The injection optical system, through which the 3.6-Mev proton beam from Van de Graaff accelerator enters Cosmotron, consists primarily of a deflecting magnet and an electrostatic inflector in is deflected angles 25° 30°, respectively. Viewing detecting mechanisms are available for studies alignment ion optics. properties system have been studied detail; parameters chosen yield injected beam, parallel horizontal plane diverging within angle 0.003 radian vertical plane.
At fields over 10 000 gauss the effects of saturation in Cosmotron magnet cause deterioration field pattern which rapidly becomes serious enough to complete loss proton beam. This can be restored adequately up 14 by passing current through single-layer windings on faces poles. Peak correction required at is about 300 amp per radial inch each winding. The pole-face winding returns are so arranged that almost completely decoupled from main magnetizing and their power supplies place but not yet...
