Characteristics of a ruby scintillator

  • 1. Tokyo Univ., School of Engineering, Tokyo (Japan)

Description

A scintillator for the beam monitor of a linear accelerator is described. The scintillator are a ruby, an alumina fluorescent plate (AF995R, Desmarquest Co.), and a white sapphire. Test measurements of the present scintillator have been made under the conditions of the accelerated charges of lower than 0.5 nc/pulse and the pulse which ranging from 10ps to 2ns. From the results of this experiment, the following can be concluded: (a) the rise time of the ruby is less than 2 ns, (b) the rise time of the AF995R is less than 2ns, (c) the rise time of the white sapphire is about 260ns, (d) the decay time of the chrome is about 5 ms.
