Exclusive attributes of undoped poly (ethylene terephthalate) for alpha particle detection

Poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET) is available worldwide and has a broad range of applications. However, its basic properties as a scintillation material that is undoped with fluorescent guest molecules are not completely known. Here, we optically characterise undoped PET for use in radiation detection. Light absorption is primarily below 350 nm, with an emission maximum at 385 nm. An effective refractive index, determined from the emission spectrum and the wavelength dependence of the refractive index, is 1.62, which is greater than that for the sodium D line (N_D = 1.57). The density of PET is 1.33 g/cm³, and its stopping power for 1-MeV electrons is 1.72 MeV cm²/g. Distinct peaks generated by alpha particles from ²¹⁰Pb and ²⁴¹Am radioactive sources appear in PET light-yield distributions. The PET response to 5-6-MeV alpha particles is approximately one-eighth that for electrons. These results demonstrate that undoped PET has special attributes for alpha particle detection. This knowledge will enable better performance of radiation equipment based on PET and its blends with other aromatic ring polymers.     

Model dependence of single-energy fits to pion photoproduction data

Model dependence of multipole analysis has been explored through energy-dependent and single-energy fits to pion photoproduction data. The MAID energy-dependent solution has been used as input for an event generator producing realistic pseudo data. These were fitted using the SAID parametrization approach to determine single-energy and energy-dependent solutions over a range of lab photon energies from 200 to 1200MeV. The resulting solutions were found to be consistent with the input amplitudes from MAID. Fits with a χ-squared per datum of unity or less were generally achieved. We discuss energy regions where consistent results are expected, and explore the sensitivity of fits to the number of included single- and double-polarization observables. The influence of Watson’s theorem is examined in detail.     

Contact-injected space charge in pet

Absorption current and photo- and thermally stimulated depolarization measurements on Melinex PET at high fields are summarised. They provide clear evidence of field and temperature dependent injection from Al and In cathodes leading to the formation of stored space charge. Electron beam-induced depolarization experiments confirm significant injection of electrons from an Al cathode, and determine their range as ?1μm at room temperature and 1MV/cm. A small hole charge is found in the vicinity of an Al anode. Au contacts appear to inject only holes. The results confirm the conclusion drawn by previous authors that any quasi-steady conduction observed in Melinex PET is likely to be contact-induced.

The GRIF-2 solar-geophysical experiment on board ALPHA

The main purpose of the GRIF-2 solar-geophysical experiment on board the ALPHA space vehicle is the comprehensive study of the temporal and spectral characteristics of the high-energy neutral radiations (gamma-quanta, neutrons, etc.) generated in solar flares. Another important part of the experiment is the study of the dynamics of energetic charged particles (electrons, protons, etc.) in the circumterrestrial space and its correlation with solar phenomena. The complex of instruments includes a high-sensitivity oriented spectrometer of gamma-quanta and neutrons, an oriented spectrometer of X-rays and electrons with a large geometrical factor, and a spectrometer of electrons and protons with a small geometrical factor. The spectrometer of gamma-quanta and neutrons measures particle fluxes and spectra in the gamma-quantum energy range 0.1– 10 MeV and the spectrometer of neutrons is used for energies over 10 MeV. The spectrometer of X-rays and electrons is intended for both the continuous control of magnetospheric electron precipitations and monitoring the X-ray solar activity in the range 10–100 keV. The spectrometer of charged particles with a small geometrical factor is intended for measurement of high-intensity charged particle fluxes in the trapped radiation zones in the Earth magnetosphere.

Classical and quantum magnetisation reversal studied in single nanometer-sized particles and clusters using micro-SQUIDs

Recent progress in experiment on quantum tunnelling of the magnetic moment in mesoscopic systems will be reviewed. The emphasis will be made on measurements of individual nanoparticles. These nanomagnets allow one to test the border between classical and quantum behaviour. Using the micro-SQUID magnetometer, waiting time, switching field and telegraph noise measurements show unambiguously that the magnetisation reversal of small enough single-crystalline nanoparticles is described by a model of thermal activation over a single-energy barrier. Results on insulating BaFeO nanoparticles show strong deviations from this model below 0.4 K which agree with the theory of macroscopic quantum tunnelling in the low dissipation regime.     

Measurement of the total spectrum of electrons and positrons in the energy range of 300–1500 GeV in the PAMELA experiment with the aid of a sampling calorimeter and a neutron detector

A method based on the use of a sampling calorimeter was developed for measuring the total energy spectrum of electrons and positrons from high-energy cosmic rays in the PAMELA satellite-borne experiment. This made it possible to extend the range of energies accessible to measurements by the magnetic system of the PAMELA spectrometer. Themethod involves a procedure for selecting electrons on the basis of features of a secondary-particle shower in the calorimeter. The results obtained by measuring the total spectrum of cosmic-ray electrons and positrons in the energy range of 300–1500 GeV by the method in question are presented on the basis of data accumulated over a period spanning 2006 and 2013.

     

Electronic frequency tuning of the acousto-optic mode-locking device of a laser

The effect of the electronic tuning of the acoustic resonances in an acousto-optic mode-locking device of a laser is investigated theoretically and experimentally. The problem of the excitation of a Fabry–Perot acoustic resonator by a plate-like piezoelectric transducer (PET) is solved in the approximation of plane acoustic waves taking into consideration the actual parameters of an RF generator and the elements for matching the PET to the generator. Resonances are tuned by changing the matching inductance that was connected in parallel to the transducer of the acousto-optic cell. The cell used in the experiment was manufactured from fused silica and included a lithium niobate PET. Changes in the matching inductance in the range of 0.025 to 0.2 μH provided the acoustic-resonance frequency tuning by 0.19 MHz, which exceeds the acoustic- resonance half-width.
