Response of CR-39(DOP) as a relativistic 238U-ion detector
TLDR
In this article, a CR-39(DOP) solid state nuclear track detector was irradiated at a zenith angle of 30° by 238U-ions of energy 0.927 GeV/n using LBL BEVALAC beam.Abstract:
Pershore made CR-39(DOP) solid state nuclear track detector was irradiated at a zenith angle of 30° by 238U-ions of energy 0.927 GeV/n using LBL BEVALAC beam. The exposed plate has been etched in 6.25N NaOH solution at 70°C for one hour. About 1094 cone lengths of the incident U-beam in CR-39(DOP) have been optically measured. The track registration sensitivity ( V T V G ) has been estimated and was found to be (127.7±10.5). The dependence of charge response of CR-39(DOP) detector on restricted energy loss of ultra heavy projectile ions has been studied, to explore the strong departure from Z2-dependence of the response function.read more
