An ionization chamber for (n,z) reaction cross section measurements on gaseous targets
Abstract
An ionization chamber with gaseous samples has been designed. It has been tested on the beam of the pulsed reactor IBR-30 of FLNP, JINR-Dubna. The experiment has been carried out with resonance neutrons. The exposed gas volume serves as a target for neutron beam. We have compared the chamber to samples on substrates, the background component due to Li and B microimpurities in this case is totally absent. It has been tested also the recovery capability of the chamber after the reactor power pulse using the protons from the 3He(n,p)3H reaction, alpha-particles from a U-source and a pulsed precision generator. Moreover the energy resolution of the chamber with its equipment has been carried out.
