Study of the resonance α+13C interaction at low energies: Optimization of parameters of the beam shape
About half of all elements heavier than iron are produced in a stellar environment through the s process, which involves a series of subsequent neutron captures and α decays. The reaction 13C(α,n)16O is considered to be the main source of neutrons for the s process at low temperatures in low mass stars in the asymptotic giant branch (AGB). In order to understand better creation of such elements we need to imrove the understanding of creation of such elements, that is to obtain the excitation functions of the 13C (α, α)17O elastic scattering at the initial beam energy 13C from 1.7Mev/A till energies close to zero by using the Thick Target Inverse Kinematics method (TTIK) [1]. The experiment will be conducted in Astana, KZ by using a new heavy ion accelerator DC-60 that provides ion beam with the energy 1.75 MeV/nucleon [1]. To improve the results and reduce errors, the profiling of the beam within the experimental camera is required. In this article, the detailed preparations for this measurement are described
Random Number Hardware Generator Using Geiger-Mode Avalanche Photo Detector
The main problems with existing hardware random number generators today are either low speed and/or prohibitively high cost. The physical concept and test results of sample data of the high-speed hardware true random number generator design based Hamamatsu MPPC photo sensor are shown. Main features of this concept are the high speed of the true random numbers generation (tens of Mbt/s), miniature size and estimated lower production cost. This allows the use of such a device not only in large companies and government offices but for the end-user data cryptography, in classrooms, in scientific Monte-Carlo simulations, computer games and any other place where large number of true random numbers is required. The physics of the operations principle of using a Geiger-mode avalanche photo detector is briefly discussed and the high quality of the data collected is demonstrate
Performance of Water-Based Liquid Scintillator: An Independent Analysis
The water-based liquid scintillator (WbLS) is a new material currently under development. It is based on the idea of dissolving
the organic scintillator in water using special surfactants. This material strives to achieve the novel detection techniques by
combining theCerenkov rings and scintillation light, aswell as the total cost reduction compared to pure liquid scintillator (LS).The
independent light yieldmeasurement analysis for the light yield measurements using three different proton beamenergies (210MeV,
475MeV, and 2000MeV) for water, two different WbLS formulations (0.4% and 0.99%), and pure LS conducted at Brookhaven
National Laboratory, USA, is presented. The results show that a goal of ∼100 optical photons/MeV, indicated by the simulation to
be an optimal light yield for observing both the Cerenkov ring and the scintillation light from the proton decay in a large water
detector, has been achieve
