Sections for the lab manuals page:

  • Theory
  • Parts of the Accelerator
    • The Ion Source
    • The CASE Nuclear Structure Lab ion source is a General Ionex 860A (now part of High Voltage Europa HVEE), purchased in 1983. It is a negative ion source capable of making microAmp beams of most elements from the periodic table (exceptions include noble gases).

    • The Tandem
    • The CASE Nuclear Structure Lab accelerator is the FN-8 Tandem Van de Graaff built by High Voltage Engineering Corporation in 1967. It uses a pelletized charging chain to create voltages up to 8 Million Volts.

    • The Ion Optics
    • A variety of ion optical elements are used to steer and focus the beam.

    • The Target Room
    • The CASE NSL Target Room has 6 beamlines available for experiments in nuclear physics, atomic physics, condensed matter, radiation damage and Accelerator Mass Spectromtry.

    • Detection
  • Radiation Safety
