Development of a transport system for the copper source of the Texas Intense Positron Source facility

A new system for real-time data acquisition and pulse parameterization for digital positron annihilation lifetime spectrometers with high repetition rates

“…Intense positron beams, which yield quite high intensities, are found at nuclear research reactors or at electron accelerators. See for example: NEPOMUC at the research reactor in Munich (Germany) [7,8], POSH at the research reactor Delft (the Netherlands) [9], TIPS research reactor in Austin (Texas) [10], PULSTAR in Raleigh (North Carolina) [11] or KUR in Kyoto (Japan) [12] as well as accelerator based beam lines like: the positron beam at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (California) [13], the micro-beam at National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) in Tsukuba (Japan) [14], the positron beam facility at the High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK) in Tsukuba (Japan) [15] and, last but not least, the monoenergetic positron source (MePS) at Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (Germany) [16].…”
