A liquid xenon positron target concept

چکیده
Positron targets are a critical component of future Linear Colliders. Traditional composed high-Z metals that become brittle over time due to constant bombardment by high-power electron beams. We explore the possibility liquid xenon target which is continuously refreshed and therefore not susceptible damage mechanisms traditional solid targets. Using GEANT4 simulation code, we examine performance show positron yield comparable when normalized radiation length. Additionally, observe peak energy deposition density (PEDD) threshold for higher than commonly employed metal targets, makes it an attractive, non-toxic alternative. develop parameter sets demonstration applications at FACET-II

A Liquid Xenon Detector for Positron Emission Tomography
Here, we report on the present state of development of a liquid xenon detector composed by multiwire ionisation chambers, which has been developed for positron emission tomography (PET). It uses the fast scintillation signal for coincidence and subsequent trigger of the event processing. The charge signals induced on the wires are used for position determination along the radial and transaxial ...
متن کاملPreparation of Neutron-activated Xenon for Liquid Xenon Detector Calibration
We report the preparation of neutron-activated xenon for the calibration of liquid xenon (LXe) detectors. Gamma rays from the decay of xenon metastable states, produced by fast neutron activation, were detected and their activities measured in a LXe scintillation detector. Following a five-day activation of natural xenon gas with a Cf (4× 10 n/s) source, the activities of two gamma ray lines at...
متن کاملLiquid mixtures of xenon with fluorinated species: xenon + sulfur hexafluoride.
The vapor-liquid equilibrium of binary mixtures of xenon + SF6 has been measured at nine temperatures from 235.34 to 295.79 K and pressures up to 6.5 MPa. The mixture critical line is found to be continuous between the critical points of the pure components, and hence, the system can be classified as type I phase behavior in the scheme of van Konynenburg and Scott. The excess Gibbs free energie...

متن کاملDistillation of Liquid Xenon to Remove Krypton
A high performance distillation system to remove krypton from xenon was constructed, and a purity level of Kr/Xe = ∼ 3 × 10 was achieved. This development is crucial in facilitating high sensitivity low background experiments such as the search for dark matter in the universe.
