We have searched for a deeply bound kaonic state by using the FINUDA spectrometer installed at e+e− collider DAΦNE. Almost monochromatic K−’s produced through decay of ϕ(1020) mesons are used to observe K− absorption reactions stopped on very thin nuclear targets. Taking this unique advantage, we succeeded detect kaon-bound K−pp its two-body into Λ hyperon and proton. The binding energy width determined from invariant-mass distribution as 115+6−5(stat)+3−4(syst) MeV 67+14−11(stat)+2−3(syst)...
Abstract The paper presents an overview of the design status Radial Neutron Camera (RNC), that, together with Vertical Camera, will provide, through reconstruction techniques applied to measured line-integrated neutron fluxes, time resolved measurement ITER and α-source profile (i.e. emissivity, neutrons emitted per unit volume). RNC is composed two subsystems, In-Port Ex-Port located, respectively, inside outside Plug Equatorial Port #01. subsystem in a more advanced stage since it has...
The FINUDA experiment performed a systematic study of the charged mesonic weak decay channel $p$-shell $Λ$-hypernuclei. Negatively pion spectra from were measured with magnetic analysis for first time ${^{7}_ΛLi}$, ${^{9}_ΛBe}$, ${^{11}_ΛB}$ and ${^{15}_ΛN}$. shape $π^{-}$ was interpreted through comparison distorted wave calculations that take into account structure both hypernucleus daughter nucleus. Branching ratios $Γ_{π^{-}}/Γ_{tot}$ derived converted to rates $Γ_{π^{-}}$ by means known...
In this work, a single crystal CVD diamond film with novel three-dimensional (3D) interdigitated electrode geometry has been fabricated the Reactive Ion Etching (RIE) technique in order to increase charge collection efficiency (CCE) respect that obtained by standard superficial electrodes. The geometrical arrangement of electric field lines due 3D patterning electrodes results shorter travel path for excess carriers, thus contributing more efficient mech-anism. CCE device was mapped means...
High-energy electron beams generated by linear accelerators, typically in the range 6 to 20 MeV, are used small field sizes for radiotherapy of localized superficial tumors. Unshielded silicon diodes (Si-D) commonly considered suitable detectors relative dose measurements fields due their high spatial resolution. Recently, a novel synthetic single crystal diamond diode (SCDD) showed properties standard and photon dosimetry. The aim present study is twofold: characterize 15 MeV shaped using...
Field-effect transistors (FETs) fabricated on hydrogen-terminated diamond surface have been heavily irradiated with 14.8-MeV neutrons in order to evaluate their possible application very high neutron fluence environments. The dc performance of the diamond-based FETs, such as drain saturation current and maximum transconductance, has studied a function up 1014 n/cm <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup> , delivered five steps....
During the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) reactor operation time, plasma will give rise to high energy neutron and gamma flux, this intense radiation field result in serious damage activation effects on various detectors components. In paper, detector candidates for ITER radial camera (RNC), i.e., scintillator components [crystal plastic scintillators, optical windows, photomultipliers (PMTs)] single-crystal diamond detectors, were investigated establish their...
This paper describes the high-priority testing activities supporting ITER radial neutron camera (RNC) design, performed by a consortium of European institutes within framework contract placed fusion for energy, Domestic Agency. The main role RNC is to measure uncollided 14- and 2.5-MeV neutrons from deuterium-tritium deuterium-deuterium reactions through an array flux monitors/spectrometers located in collimated lines sight viewing plasma equatorial port plug #1. line-integrated fluxes will...
A prototype of neutron spectrometer based on diamond detectors has been developed.
