Sensitivity Increases for the TITAN Decay Spectroscopy Program

Blog Article

The TITAN facility at TRIUMF has read more recently initiated a program of performing decay spectroscopy measurements in an electron-beam ion-trap (EBIT).The unique environment of the EBIT provides backingfree storage of the radioactive ions, while guiding charged decay particles from the trap centre via the strong magnetic field.This measurement technique is able to provide a significant increase in detection sensitivity for photons which result from radioactive decay.

A brief Neuw Rebel Skinny Eternal Black Jeans overview of this device is presented, along with methods of improving the signal-to-background ratio for photon detection by reducing Compton scattered events, and eliminating vibrational noise.
