An Electron Linac Photo-fission Driver for the Rare Isotope Program at Triumf
A 0.5 megawatt electron linear accelerator is being designed at TRIUMF in support of its expanding rare isotope program, which targets nuclear structure and astrophysics studies as well as material science. The first stage of the project, a 25 MeV, 5 mA, c.w. linac matching the isotope production target power-handling capability in the next five-year plan, is planned to be completed in 2013. Th...
متن کاملMedical imaging and telemedicine - from medical data production, to processing, storing, and sharing: A short outlook
The editorial first presents the papers of this special issue and the context of the conference they were selected from. Then, a further outlook is given into the broad range of topics in medical imaging and the future developments that we regard as important. This issue of the International Journal of Computerized Medical Imaging and Graphics highlights extended versions of the best papers pre...
متن کاملThe TWIST Data Acquisition System at Triumf
The TRIUMF Weak Interaction Symmetry Test (TWIST) is an experiment to measure precisely the Michel parameters describing the energy and angular dependence of positrons emitted from the decay of polarized positive muons. The detector consists of a 2 Tesla superconducting solenoid containing 56 planar chambers for high precision tracking of the positrons through readout of some 4200 multihit TDC ...
متن کاملMedical Isotope Production Using A 60 MeV Linear Electron Accelerator
Medical isotopes can be produced by reactors and accelerators [1]. For certain isotopes there could be an advantage to a certain production method. For example; in some cases production via the ( ,n) or ( ,p) reaction has advantages that include high production yield [2] and production in a matrix that simplifies chemical separation of the desired isotope. To maximize isotope production, a high...
متن کاملMuon Decay Parameters (TWIST experiment at TRIUMF)
The TRIUMF Weak Interaction Symmetry Test (TWIST) experiment has measured the spectrum of positrons from muon decay and determined the decay parameters: ρ = 0.75014 ± 0.00017(stat.) ± 0.00044(syst.) ± 0.00011(η), δ = 0.75067 ± 0.00030(stat.) ± 0.00067(syst.), P π µ ξ = 1.0003 ± 0.0006(stat.) ± 0.0038(syst.). The results are in good agreement with the Standard Model. Future prospects for this me...
