This contribution will present the recent measurements performed at KIT to calibrate scintillation detectors for the IceCube Surface Array Enhancement with radioactive sources as reference for deposited energy.
Recently, free electron lasing at UV wavelength, seeded by a laser plasma accelerator has been demonstrated at the COXINEL beamline in collaboration with HZDR[1]. Further control and optimization of FEL radiation requires full knowledge of strongly-coupled multivariate parameters involved in laser plasma acceleration, electron beam transport and radiation generation. For this purpose, one has...
Temperature mapping systems have been used for many years to detect local heating in an SRF cavity surface or materials sample. They require a large number of temperature sensors. Most often, low-cost Allen-Bradley resistors are used for this purpose. Since they have poor sensitivity and reproducibility above $4 \,$K, sensor alternatives that combine the precision of Cernox sensors with the...
Particle accelerators are complex and energy-intensive facilities that require extensive and inter-twined connections with the public electrical grid. Furthermore, accelerator facilities are well known for their low power demand flexibility, which depends only on experimental operations, and it must be accommodated independently from the grid. So, it is necessary to develop, and test new...
With careful consideration of respective interfaces, both on the side of electronics, as well as user-interfaces, it is possible to build data-acquisition (DAQ) systems of remarkable performance, using almost exclusively well-established consumer-grade computing methods and equipment. Consumer-grade computing equipment and software systems have made tremendous advancements in core metrics,...
In the framework of the development of the HBS High Brilliance Neutron Source we have built the JULIC Neutron Platform with a complete neutron target station mock-up of the HBS at the pulsed JULIC cyclotron of the Institute for Nuclear Physics IKP at Forschungszentrum Jülich. It went in operation in December 2023. Despite the limited proton current of the cyclotron the facility is well...
In high-energy physics, upgrades for particle detectors and studies on future particle detectors are largely based on silicon sensors as tracking devices. Consequently, there is a need to investigate silicon sensor concepts that offer large-area coverage and cost-efficiency.
Sensors based on the CMOS imaging technology present such an alternative silicon sensor concept for tracking...
With regard to the growing need for suitable hydrogen storage systems in various application areas, this poster is about two alternative concepts for hydrogen storage based on cryogenic pumps such as GSI's SIS100 cryosorption pump.
First, the basic principles of condensation and adsorption in cryopumps are described. Furthermore the conventional hydrogen storage systems are explained....
To meet the requirements of different users, modern storage ring light sources, including BESSY II, use complex filling patterns. For this reason, there is a need for beam diagnostics with bunch resolution. At BESSY II, longitudinal bunch-resolved diagnostics have been made possible by the use of a streak camera, which uses the visible light of a bending magnet. To complement the...
An R&D platform for electron FLASH radiation therapy and radiation biology is being prepared at the Photo Injector Test facility at DESY in Zeuthen (FLASHlab@PITZ). This platform is based on the unique beam parameters available at PITZ: ps scale electron bunches of up to 22 MeV with up to 5 nC bunch charge at MHz bunch repetition rate in bunch trains of up to 1 ms in length repeating at 1 to...
Software as an important method and output of research should follow the RDA "FAIR for Research Software Principles". In practice, this means that research software, whether open, inner or closed source, should be published with rich metadata to enable FAIR4RS.
For research software practitioners, this currently often means to follow an arduous and mostly manual process of software...
