Deterioration of the operation parameters of Al/SiO2/p-type Si surface barrier detector upon irradiation with alpha-particles at room temperature was investigated. As a result of 40-days irradiation with a total fluence of 8*10^9 {alpha}-particles, an increase of {alpha}-peak FWHM from 70 keV to 100 keV was observed and explained by increase of the detector reverse current due to formation of a high concentration of near mid-gap defect levels. Performed CV measurements revealed the appearance of at least 6*10^12 cm-3 radiation-induced acceptors at the depths where according to the TRIM simulations the highest concentration of vacancy-interstitial pairs was created by the incoming {alpha}-particles. The studies carried out by current-DLTS technique allowed to associate the observed increase of the acceptor concentration with the near mid-gap acceptor level at EV+0.56 eV. This level can be apparently associated with V2O defects recognized previously to be responsible for the space charge sign inversion in the irradiated n-type Si detectors.

Characterization of a hybrid ${it telescope}$ with gas transmission detector ($Delta$E) and a solid-state stop detector (E) has been fabricated for detection of low energy $alpha$ particles between 5 to 1 MeV. The detector is developed for utilizatio
n in the study of alpha excitation function in (p.$alpha$) reaction. The gas ionization chamber, operated in axial field mode, measures the differential energy loss ($Delta$E), while the residual energies are measured by silicon detector. Particle identification is realized by implementing the $Delta$E-E technique. The optimum sensitivity of the detector as a telescope has been studied down to the lowest energy value of 0.89 MeV $alpha$-particles with a suitable combination of electric field and pressure or E/p value in the ionization region.
We report the timing and spatial resolution from the Muon Telescope Detector (MTD) installed in the STAR experiment at RHIC. Cosmic ray muons traversing the STAR detector have an average transverse momentum of 6 GeV/c. Due to their very small multipl
e scattering, these cosmic muons provide an ideal tool to calibrate the detectors and measure their timing and spatial resolution. The values obtained were ~100 ps and ~1-2 cm, respectively. These values are comparable to those obtained from cosmic-ray bench tests and test beams.
The Low Energy Neutron Source (LENS) is an accelerator-based pulsed cold neutron facility under construction at the Indiana University Cyclotron Facility (IUCF). The idea behind LENS is to produce pulsed cold neutron beams starting with ~MeV neutrons
from (p,n) reactions in Be which are moderated to meV energies and extracted from a small solid angle for use in neutron instruments which can operate efficiently with relatively broad (~1 msec) neutron pulse widths. Although the combination of the features and operating parameters of this source is unique at present, the neutronic design possesses several features similar to those envisioned for future neutron facilities such as long-pulsed spallation sources (LPSS) and very cold neutron (VCN) sources. We describe the underlying ideas and design details of the target/moderator/reflector system (TMR) and compare measurements of its brightness, energy spectrum, and emission time distribution under different moderator configurations with MCNP simulations. Brightness measurements using an ambient temperature water moderator agree with MCNP simulations within the 20% accuracy of the measurement. The measured neutron emission time distribution from a solid methane moderator is in agreement with simulation and the cold neutron flux is sufficient for neutron scattering studies of materials. We describe some possible modifications to the existing design which would increase the cold neutron brightness with negligible effect on the emission time distribution.
A Hadron Blind Detector (HBD) has been developed, constructed and successfully operated within the PHENIX detector at RHIC. The HBD is a Cherenkov detector operated with pure CF4. It has a 50 cm long radiator directly coupled in a window- less config
uration to a readout element consisting of a triple GEM stack, with a CsI photocathode evaporated on the top surface of the top GEM and pad readout at the bottom of the stack. This paper gives a comprehensive account of the construction, operation and in-beam performance of the detector.
We have developed a prototype time-resolved neutron imaging detector employing the micro-pixel chamber (muPIC), a micro-pattern gaseous detector, coupled with a field programmable gate array-based data acquisition system for applications in neutron r
adiography at high-intensity neutron sources. The prototype system, with an active area of 10cm x 10cm and operated at a gas pressure of 2 atm, measures both the energy deposition (via time-over-threshold) and 3-dimensional track of each neutron-induced event, allowing the reconstruction of the neutron interaction point with improved accuracy. Using a simple position reconstruction algorithm, a spatial resolution of 349 +/- 36 microns was achieved, with further improvement expected. The detailed tracking allows strong rejection of background gamma-rays, resulting in an effective gamma sensitivity of 10^-12 or less, coupled with stable, robust neutron identification. The detector also features a time resolution of 0.6 microseconds.
