Download or read book Detection of Protons in CR 39 Plastic Track Detector written by Y. V. Rao and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CR-39 plastic is used as a detector to observe monoenergetic protons. Several samples of CR-39 were exposed to protons of energies 1.5 MeV, 2.2 MeV, 3.2 MeV and 4.3 MeV. After etching measurements were carried out on track diameters produced by protons in all samples. The diameter distributions clearly show an excellent energy resolution of protons of different energies. From our preliminary analysis of data, it appears that the response function for registering protons in CR-39 may be a lot less complicated than in cellulose nitrate. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CR-39 plastic nuclear track detectors have proved to be one of the most useful nuclear track detectors in physics research. They have made significant contributions to research in the fields of particle radiation at aviation altitudes, in space, and in the natural environment. Other uses have included radiation risk estimation, the search for magnetic monopoles and the investigation of energetic particles generated by the low energy nuclear reactions (LENRs) in condensed matter nuclear science (CMNS). This book describes the methods and applications using CR-39 detectors in several important physics research areas and presents results obtained.

This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Primordial Lithium problem of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN), a prediction of 7Li abundance which is considerably larger than observed, has important implications for the standard model of cosmology. Since 7Li is produced by the later decay of 7Be it is important to study the destruction of 7Be during the epoch of BBN, in order to examine possible reduction of the predicted abundance of 7Li, in particular the destruction of 7Be with neutrons. The high flux of 50 keV epithermal neutrons (1010 n/sec/cm2) produced by a Liquid Lithium (LiLiT) target at the Soreq Applied Research Accelerator Facility (SARAF) in Yavne, Israel offers opportunities for research at BBN energy. Due to the high intensity of the neutron flux at SARAF, background can be overwhelming for spectroscopic detectors. The plastic polymer CR-39 (poly allyl diglycol carbonate - PADC, C12H18O7) was chosen as a detector that can withstand the high neutron and associated gamma-ray flux. CR-39 Nuclear Track Detectors (NTD) have been calibrated for detection of alpha-particles and protons in a high neutron flux environment. These detectors can be used to detect damage caused by ionizing radiation on the plastic through a process of chemical etching. Charged particles leave behind a trademark path of chemical bonds broken by incoming ionized radiation. After chemical etching, the broken bonds are visible under a microscope in the form of circular pits. A segmentation algorithm was developed using ImageJ/FIJI to analyze the pits and calibrate the detectors for use in the 7Be and neutron experiment at SARAF.

Download or read book Solid State Nuclear Track Detectors written by H. François and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-09-03 with total page 1119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solid State Nuclear Track Detectors is a collection of papers that covers various aspects of solid state nuclear track detectors. The book presents 130 articles that cover the concerns in the mechanisms, operations, and applications of solid state nuclear track detectors. The materials in the text are thematically grouped into three parts. The book first discusses the fundamental mechanisms, which include determination of the screening parameter from measurements of differential energy loss and atomic displacement effects from heavy ion induced coulomb explosion. Next, the selection presents articles that deal with the methodology of detectors, such as experimental track widths of low energy heavy ions in nuclear emulsion and structure of light nuclei tracks. The remaining papers cover the fields of applications, such as nuclear fusion; prospection of radioactive and fissionable minerals; dosimetry; and autoradiography. The book will be of great use to researchers and practitioners of disciplines related to nuclear science.
