摘要:SSRF,as a national scientific base in China to provide synchrotron radiations from IR to hard X-rays for hundreds of scientists working simultaneously on the experimental stations,needs an efficient software platform for the facility control and user service.It uses a distributed control system of EPICS,which is commonly used home and abroad in large scientific facilities.Channel Archiver is an archiving toolset for EPICS,which is used to store and retrieve different types of data generated by EPICS.Based on analysis of Archive System,we have found some ways to overcome the defects in existing,and designed a new archiver system using Oracle database.This offers a unified interface for varieties of programs.

摘要:The BL08U soft X-ray microspectroscopy station of Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility has been built and open to users successfully.The spatial resolution is about 30 nm.Due to limitation of mechanical precision and errors in repeatability,the drift of scanned images is inevitable at different scan energies.This gives rise to serious errors and data analysis inaccuracy.Therefore,the images scanned by X-rays at different-energies should be registered before data analysis.For solving the problem,efforts have been made in both hardware and software.A laser interferometer is used to precisely detect the sample position and measure its position drift,and the drift rates can be calculated with a standard sample(pattern) using the slope function.The drift rates are used for dynamic calibration of the sample stage position,which is initiated automatically once there is a sample moving.To a large extent,this eliminates the position drifts.On the other hand,a multi-window cross correlation technique to automatically register the scanned images has been developed.The result shows that the technique can reach a precision of 1 pixel.

摘要:Modulated electron radiation therapy(MERT),which delivers conformal dose to shallow tumors and protects distal structures and surrounding tissues,but,the photon multileaf collimator(MLC) is no longer suitable for MERT.In this paper,the PENELOPE code is used to simulate an electron-specific MLC(EMLC) for the optimal choice of the material and geometry of leave.The results demonstrate that tungsten is more suitable for EMLC than lead,iron,copper;and 2 cm thickness is sufficient to resist most of the electrons with relatively less bremsstrahlung;leaf with straight end shape produces less dose penumbra and moreover the width of 1 cm is the most suitable choice for leaf width.

摘要:In developing a neutron generator-based security check system for explosives using associated α particles and neutron flight of time technique,it is important to avoid possible influences by the D-T neutron and secondary γ-rays to the inspection equipment,staffs,passengers and ambient environment.In this paper,the MCNP5 code is used to simulate the coupled transport of neutrons and γ-rays,for calculating the shield effect of inspection equipment and the individual dose equivalent.The results show that after effective shielding,the fast neutron equivalent of inspection equipment can be reduced to 3.44% of the source flux,satisfying the shielding requirement.The individual dose equivalent meets the national regulations in specified access areas.The influences to surrounding environment can be neglected.

摘要:Terahertz time domain spectra(THz-TDS) of liquid water,dioxane and their mixtures were measured using 0.3-1.8 THz waves.The results show that the dioxane is nearly transparent to THz waves and the absorption of dioxane-water increases with the water content.The mixtures behave as ideal liquid at high water content,but the mixture’s absorption coefficient is remarkably higher than that of ideal liquid when water content is less than 20 vol%.This noticeable deviation of low water content mixtures from ideality is due to the particular properties of nano-water or interface water.
摘要:A cold neutron source(CNS) is a reactor facility to slow down thermal neutrons into clod neutrons of 0.1-0.5 meV.If the cryogenic hydrogen loop leaks(including the moderator chamber),and the injecting hydrogen contacts the inner surface of the vacuum containment,the thermal stress shall concentrate on the impacted zone by cryogenic hydrogen.A finite element stress analysis was conducted,and it was found that the maximum stresses are 195 and 213 MPa,corresponding to the impacted area of 1.0-2.25 cm2,respectively.The max stresses are less than the stress limit of the material.So it is concluded that the cryo-hydrogen injecting accident does not threat the safety of the vacuum containment.

摘要:A strippable film of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) for decontamination of radioactive dusts on stainless steel (SS) device surface was developed by investigating the film-stripping ability from the SS surface and the contamination-removal efficiency of the films of various preparation parameters. They include PVA concentration of the film-making solution, and amounts of EDTA-Na-Ca as complexing agent, CMC-2Na as thickening agent, PEG-200 as plasticizer, nmCaCO3 as surfactant, and 1.85 mol/L HCl. The PVA film, which can be dried in 8 h, is capable of removing over 80% of surface contamination of 90Sr at 0.02-0.20 Bq/cm2.
