合肥光源托歇克效应损失电子的探测

 束流寿命是衡量储存环性能的重要参数,直接影响着光源的正常运行。对于合肥光源（HLS）,托歇克（Touschek）寿命是影响束流寿命的重要因素。为了研究Touschek寿命,需要探测由于Touschek效应所损失的电子。介绍了束流寿命的概念,说明了Touschek效应的原理和机制,利用蒙特卡罗软件EGSnrc模拟计算了丢失电子与真空壁的相互作用,通过塑料闪烁体探测器和光电倍增管获得了由于Touschek效应丢失的电子所产生的信号,然后将信号经过放大甄别和符合处理后,用计数器测量了计数率。结果表明：由于Touschek效应而成对丢失的电子的确存在,且电子损失率随流强的降低而减小。这为下一步储存环的能量标定工作做好了前期准备。     

质子衰变实验进展

按照粒子物理标准模型理论,重子数是绝对守恒的.而大统一理论(GUTs)明确地否定了重子数的对称性,预言质子会衰变成更轻的次粒子.文章论述了质子衰变的物理概念、基本探测条件和主要实验现状,并在探测方法的探讨和探测技术的改进方面融入了一些想法.目前一般认为质子的寿命为τp>1032年左右.质子衰变的探测,对于新理论模型的验证、宇宙学和粒子物理学的发展具有重要意义.     

Preparation of a silicon micro-strip nuclear radiation detector by a two-step annealing process

The annealing process for boron implantation is a crucial step during large size nuclear radiation detector fabrication. It can reduce the lattice defects and the projection straggling. A two-step annealing process for boron implantation was developed instead of a one-step annealing process, and the reverse body resistance of a silicon micro-strip detector was significantly increased, which means that the performance of the detector was improved.     

Study of radiation background at the north crossing point of the BEPCⅡ in collision mode

Understanding the radiation background at the north crossing point (NCP) in the tunnel of BEPCII is crucial for the performance safety of the High Purity Germanium (HPGe) detector, and in turn of great significance for long-term stable running of the energy measurement system. Therefore, as the first step, a NaI(Tl) detector is constructed to continuously measure the radiation level of photons as background for future experiments. Furthermore, gamma and neutron dosimeters are utilized to explore the radiation distribution in the vicinity of the NCP where the HPGe detector will be located. Synthesizing all obtained information, the shielding for neutron irradiation is studied based on model-dependent theoretical analysis.     

Probe-type time-of-flight momentum and energy mapping system

A new time-of-flight (TOF) momentum and energy mapping system is proposed. The system consists of two sub-regions with different axial uniform decelerating field. Two position-sensitive detectors (PSDs) on opposite side of the tube are used for the detection of electrons with different axial motion length due to their initial energy ? and emission angle θ. A non-monotonic dependence of energy-resolving performance on electron initial energy can be achieved by choosing appropriate electric field deceleration for these two sub-regions, which forms an “energy resolution probe” possessing a higher level of energy resolution than that of lower energy part. And the local resolution in the probe region could be specifically enhanced while the other parts of all the detection range do not change so much. It is verified by the illustrating example with relative energy resolution Δ?/? smaller than 0.5% for electron energy in probe range from 36 eV to 45 eV.     

Design studies on the 4π γ-ray calorimeter for the ETF experiment at HIRFL-CSR

A high detection efficiency calorimeter which is used to detect γ-rays with energies from 1 MeV up to 10 MeV as well as light charged particles has been proposed. Design of the geometry, results of the crystal tests and Monte Carlo simulations are presented in this paper. The simulation results confirm that the calorimeter can obtain high detection efficiency and good energy resolution with the current designed geometry. And the calorimeter is competent for the future External Target Facility (ETF) experiments.

The performance can meet the requirement of studying the proposed physics at HIRFL-CSRm.

Basic principles of technological shaping of optical properties and radiation hardness of PWO crystals

Technological conditions ensuring growth of optically homogeneous lead tungstate (PWO) crystals are reported. It is shown that the basic scintillator characteristics of PWO grown from highly purified raw material and properly doped with lanthanides are mainly determined by inclusions of oxides W_1−yL_yO_3−x (L=Y, La, Gd; 0<x<0.3). Moreover, surface-located inclusions with structure close to tungstenite may also be of importance. It is demonstrated that the scintillation properties can be intentionally designed by varying the oxygen content in the inclusions x and the surface structure. The optimal value for x and the most favorable surface structure are achieved by proper thermal regimes and environment content during the crystal annealing. The results enabled low-cost fabrication of PWO scintillators with steady and reproducible characteristics acceptable for the CERN project ALICE and ensured production of PWO on an industrial scale by “North Crystals” company at a rate of 125–135 crystals per year from every growth apparatus.
