A segmented, enriched N-type germanium detector for neutrinoless double beta-decay experiments
(Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research, Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2014-01-01)We present data characterizing the performance of the first segmented, N-type Ge detector, isotopically enriched to 85% 76Ge. This detector, based on the Ortec PT6×2 design and referred to as SEGA (Segmented, Enriched Germanium ... -
Differential cross section for neutron scattering from Bi209 at 37 MeV and the weak particle-core coupling
(Physical Review C - Nuclear Physics, 2010-08-03)Differential scattering cross-section data have been measured at 43 angles from 11° to 160° for 37-MeV neutrons incident on Bi209. The primary motivation for the measurements is to address the scarcity of neutron scattering ... -
Neutron-deuteron analyzing power data at 19.0 MeV
(Physical Review C - Nuclear Physics, 2010-02-23)Measurements of neutron-deuteron (n-d) analyzing power Ay(θ) at En=19.0 MeV are reported at 16 angles from θc.m.=46.7 to 152.0°. The objective of the experiment is to better characterize the discrepancies between n-d data ... -
Spectral structure of the pygmy dipole resonance.
(Phys Rev Lett, 2010-02-19)High-sensitivity studies of E1 and M1 transitions observed in the reaction 138Ba(gamma,gamma{'}) at energies below the one-neutron separation energy have been performed using the nearly monoenergetic and 100% linearly polarized ... -
Substantial increase in acceleration potential of pyroelectric crystals
(Journal of Applied Physics, 2010-04-14)We report on a substantial increase in the acceleration potential achieved with a LiTaO3 pyroelectric crystal. With a single 2.5 cm diameter and 2.5 cm long z-cut crystal without electric field-enhancing nanotip we produced ...
