JASMIN (T972) pbar Experiments Concrete Cap(CC), Air Gap(AG), Target(TG), Filler Plate (FP), Duct Streaming (ST), and Gas Experiment (GE) Purpose • To obtain experimental data for neutrons • generated by high energy proton Interaction in matter (Ep>100 GeV) • Nuclear reaction mechanism • Simulation code test • Radiation shielding and activation
Experiment at AP0 • Neutron spectra and position distribution • Foil activation method • Samples: Aluminum, Copper, Bismuth, etc. • Position: AG, CC(2007,2008) FP, TG, ST(2008) CC AG FP TG Cross Sectional View of AP0 ST
Duct Streaming Filler Plate Air gap
Target samples Target with Be cover
Sample installation/retrieval schedule • All pbar samples installed during SD w/b 10/6/08 • Samples retrieved: • Concrete Cap 10/14/08 • Air gap 10/15/08 • Target 10/17/08 (required 4 hr cooldown & 4 hr access) • Filler plate 10/17/08 • Duct streaming 10/17/08 • Remaining air gap samples (10/25/08) • Gas experiment samples are collected during stacking operations (ongoing)

Objective 1. To compare radioactivity in target vault air under the different target configuration 2. To look at sorbability onto particulate material. Pbar gas experiment Paper Filter Teflon Filter Alkali Filter Charcoal Filter Experimental Procedure 1. Collecting gas component using filter stack. 2. Gamma spectrometry. Pump concrete Target configuration year of 2007 the target has NO Be shell year of 2008 the target has Be shell iron target vault
Result 7Be 24Na Spallation products with NO Be shell (2007) count / s / 0.5 keV with Be shell (2008) Energy (keV) • No spallation products could be observed using the Be shell. • Be-7 and Na-24 could be produced from air. So, the 2 nuclides • were observed regardless of Be shell.
