Content• A bit more than introduction
• What do we expect from the irradiation studies ?
• What do we want to test?
• Irradiation facilities
• Time. Dose. Money.
• Summary
04/22/23 Victor Rykalin 3
Some basics
First dopant, PPO (s. absorption = s. luminescence)
Second dopant, POPOP (s. absorption = s. luminescence of PPO, s.luminescence with longer wavelength than of PPO) , high conversion quantum efficiency, high thermal and photo resistance.
WHILE BEING IRRADIATED1.Complex process of degradation with active radicals appearance and output of the gas from polymer and from the dopants.
2. Two parameters degrade as a result: a. light output b. transmittance
3. Impact of thickness and measurements conditions ( air, Temperature, exposition time.
4. Light output recovery versus time (10-20 %).

What do we expect from the irradiation studies ?
• We have to measure the light output of the extruded scintillator(bulk) and DHCAL cells (without fiber, with fiber) before and after irradiation, the same for the absorption and transmission spectra.
• MRS irradiation (possible).
• We have to persuade ourselves that 10 years of scintillator based DHCAL operation at LC is not a problem (total dose ?)
• To have an information about radiation resistance of the extruded scintillator for the perspective customers (DHCAL, MINERVA, ALICE ….)
• Publication (TN)

Proton Capabilities of the RERS
Energy range: 30 to 200 MeV
Lower energies readily available via degraders. Momentum analyzed beams with a small spread are available at 50, 70, 100, and 150 Mev.
Flux: 1E2 to > 1E11 p's/sec cm2
Routine 1E5 to 1E11 p's/sec cm2 (SEM for dosimetry).
From 1E2 to 1E6 p's/sec cm2 (scintillator for dosimetry).
Areas: Less than 2 cm to 40 cm diameter.
Uniformity: < 30% variation over area.
Absolute Dosimetry: Better than 10% routinely.
Exposure Durations: A few seconds upward routinely available. RERP, Indiana University Cyclotrotron Facility2401 Milo B, Sampson LnBloomington, IN 47408

All,
The Ford Nuclear Reactor is scheduled to complete nearly 45 years of service on 3 July 2003 at 3:30 p.m. EDT.
Please, no responses.Respectfully,

Time. Dose. Money.
• Optimum dose to accumulate ~ 1 Mrad. ??? (ask me)
• Time estimation: 1 Gy= 100 rad 1Gy ~ 3.5*10E(9) / cm^2, MIP in carbon. For 200 Mev protons we have ~ 1.4*10E(9) protons. Then 1 Mrad = 10 E(4) Gy -------------> 1.4*10(13) protons/cm^ 2. Then for 200 Mev and for the 10 cm beam spot we have flux 1*10E(9)p/cm^2*sec , so we have to stay on the beam 1.4*10000 sec ~ 4 hours
• 4 hours *$ 500 = $ 2000
