Experimental Setups for Single Event Effect Studies
Journal Title: Journal of Nuclear Physics, Material Sciences, Radiation and Applications - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Experimental setups are being prepared to test and to qualify electronic devices regarding their tolerance to Single Event Effect (SEE). A multiple test setup and a new beam line developed especially for SEE studies at the São Paulo 8 UD Pelletron accelerator were prepared. This accelerator produces proton beams and heavy ion beams up to 107Ag. A Super conducting Linear accelerator, which is under construction, may fulfill all of the European Space Agency requirements to qualify electronic components for SEE.

Beam Behaviour and Magnetic Field of K500 SCC
The extraction of the beam from the k500 Superconducting Cyclotron in kolkata is posing a great challenge. After getting the internal beam, lots of effort were made to extract the beam and thereafter various experiments...
Rubber Additions into Concrete and Gamma Radiation Effects on Mechanical Properties and Microwave Absorption Capacity
Rubber is the indispensable raw material for the manufacture of tires; it is obtained from plants, trees and currently can be produced synthetically. The tire rubber is mixed with compounds such as carbon black, sulfur,...
Study of H2/N2Mixture Plasma Treatment on the AISI 1045
In the present work, we analyzed the effect of the plasma treatment of 80% H2/20% N2 mixture plasma over the AISI 1045 steel. To produce the plasma, an AC discharge of 0.1 A at 350 V was produced at a total pressure of 3...
Enhancement in the Photoluminescence Properties of SiO2:Ge Embedded in a Polymeric Matrix
Polymer films of styrene butadiene copolymer (SBC) mixed with SiO2:Ge powder were successfully obtained by the drop casting method. The SBC concentration (in chloroform solution) was 10%w/v and the SiO2:Ge powder was mix...
Characterization Of Structures Of Equivalent Tissue With a Pixel Detector
Research using hybrid pixel detectors in medical physics is on the rise. Timepix detectors have arrays of 256 × 256 pixels with a resolution of 55 µm. Here, and by using Timepix counts instead of Hounsfield units, we pre...
