Application Prospects of Multilayer Film Shields for Space Research Instrumentation
AbstractWe have studied the magnetic properties of multilayer film cylindrical configuration shields (MFS) based on NiFe / Cu. The studied samples were prepared by electrode position. MFS were constituted by alternating layers of NiFe and Cu, deposited on an aluminum cylinder with diameter of 4cm, length of 13cm and 0.5cm thickness. The thickness of each ferromagnetic layer varied from 10 to 150μm, and the thickness of Cu layers was 5μm. Five-samples in which the number of ferromagnetic layers varied from 3 to 45 and copper – from 2 to 44 were tested. The best shielding efficiency was achieved at the maximum number of layers and comprised about 102. Permalloy multilayer foil shield at the same total thickness has several times less efficiency in comparison with MFS. The description of a prototype of the charged particles telescope for space application is presented. Results of its testing regarding sensitivity to the constant magnetic field are described
Xenon Gamma-detector Applicability for Identification and Characterization of Radioactive Waste
AbstractIn this paper described applicability of xenon gamma detector for identification and characterization of radioactive waste was researched. Standard calibration gamma ray sources were used to determine real physical and technical characteristics of xenon gamma spectrometer. Samples of radioactive waste were measured by xenon gamma detector for identification and characterization
