Five-metre neutron polarizing guide-tube at the Leningrad Nuclear Physics Institute

Description

A 8.5 x 60 mm2 5 m neutron polarizing guide-tube based on 60% Co-40% Fe mirrors with an 85% Ti-15% Gd absorbing underlayer is described. The average flux at the exit of the neutron guide-tube was 1.5 x 106 n/cm2 s for a 15 MW reactor, the peak of the exit spectrum lies at the wavelength of 2.2 Angstroem, and the polarization averaged over the whole spectrum was no less than 96%.
