Linear vibrator and slot radiators, i.e., radiators of electric and magnetic type, respec‐ tively, are widely used as separate receiver and transmitter structures, elements of an‐ tenna systems, and antenna-feeder devices, including combined vibrator-slot structures. Widespread occurrence of such radiators is an objective prerequisite for theoretical analysis of their electrodynamic characteris...

We present measurements of the spectral distribution of transition radiation generated by electrons of momentum 1 to 10 GeV/c in different radiator types. We investigate periodic foil radiators and irregular foam and fiber materials. The transition radiation photons are detected by prototypes of the drift chambers to be used in the Transition Radiation Detector (TRD) of the ALICE experiment at ...

A preventable subgroup of motor vehicle injuries is burns from motor-vehicle radiators. Such burns can have a significant impact on return to work and patient psychological wellbeing.1 These injuries are commonly scald burns, often occurring following attempts to remove the lid of a hot radiator with high pressure or explosion of the radiator. This results in a spray of superheated fluid and st...

The CLEO III Ring Imaging Cherenkov detector uses LiF radiators to generate Cherenkov photons which are then detected by proportional wire chambers using a mixture of CH4 and TEA gases. The first two photon detector modules which were constructed, were taken to Fermilab and tested in a beam dump that provided high momentum muons. We report on results using both plane and “sawtooth” shaped radia...

Fermi is a seeded FEL operating in high-gain harmonic generation mode. The FEL layout is constituted by a modulator and six radiators separated by a dispersive section. The modulator and the radiators can be tuned to the same resonant frequency to set up an asymmetric optical klystron configuration where self-amplified spontaneous emission can be generated and studied. This paper presents the e...

In this study, thermal radiation was employed for sintering silicon carbide foams that achieved a gradient porous structure. The simultaneous use of graphite and carbon fiber reinforced carbon composite (Cf/C) radiators resulted in an axial temperature gradient of ~600°C along the cylindrical sample, as confirmed by both numerical simulation and experimental measurement. By sintering the cylind...
