المحول الالكترومغناطيسي لباندا في مرفق فيئر سيعتمد على عملية بلورات السنتيلاسيون الخاصة بالتنغستين الرصاصي (PWO) عند درجات حرارة قريبة من -25 مئوية عشرة لتوفير دقة كافية للأشعة في نطاق الطاقة من 8 جيجا فولت إلى 10 ميكرو فولت. تم دراسة صلابة الإشعاع لبلورات PWO في مرفق إشعاع الإشعاع في إيهيب (بروتفينو) في نطاق الحرارة من درجة حرارة الغرفة إلى -25 مئوية عشرة. وأظهرت هذه الدراسات فرقاً كبيراً في تطور العمليات التلفية في درجات حرارة أقل من درجة حرارة الغرفة. وأظهرت النتائج المختلفة في مستوى فقدان الإشارة في نفس معدل الجرعة ولكن عند درجات حرارة مختلفة. وأظهرت النتائج تأثير تخفيض كبير في عملية استعادة البلور في درجات حرارة أقل من 0 مئوية عشرة.
The electromagnetic calorimeter of PANDA at the FAIR facility will rely on an operation of lead tungstate (PWO) scintillation crystals at temperatures near -25 deg.C to provide sufficient resolution for photons in the energy range from 8 GeV down to 10 MeV. Radiation hardness of PWO crystals was studied at the IHEP (Protvino) irradiation facility in the temperature range from room temperature down to -25 deg.C. These studies have indicated a significantly different behaviour in the time evolution of the damaging processes well below room temperature. Different signal loss levels at the same dose rate, but at different temperatures were observed. The effect of a deep suppression of the crystal recovery process at temperatures below 0 deg.C has been seen.
Studies of the radiation hardness of lead tungstate crystals produced by the Bogoroditsk Techno-Chemical Plant in Russia and the Shanghai Institute of Ceramics in China have been carried out at IHEP, Protvino. The crystals were irradiated by a 40-GeV
In the context of the ClearMind project, we measured the scintillating properties, as induced from from gamma ray interactions, of today available PbWO4 crystal. We measured scintillation s yields and time constants by measuring the signal shape meas
This paper is devoted to the study of a degradation of CsI(Tl)crystals scintillation characteristics under irradiation with gamma-quanta at the uniformly distributed absorbed dose up to 3700 rad. The sample set consisted of 25 crystals of 30 cm long
Lead fluoride ($PbF_{2}$) crystals represent an excellent and relatively innovative choice for high resolution electromagnetic calorimeters with high granularity and fast timing. During the R&D stages of the Crilin calorimeter, three pbfd crystals si
We report on the effects of radiation on the light output of lead tungstate crystals. The crystals were irradiated by pure, intense high energy electron and hadron beams as well as by a mixture of hadrons, neutrons and gammas. The crystals were manuf
