Two experiments:

  • "Regular Helium Atom Scattering" (using microchannel plate) Diagram
  • "Metastable Helium Atom Scattering" (using channeltron) Diagram

The following boxes/instruments need to be constructed:

  • TOF box
    • FPGA board with pseudo-random pulser and TDC; controlled via USB/serial I/F
    • Pulse input from detector preamp (also supplies preamp power)
    • 0..-25V manually adjustable supply for cathode offset (with panel meter)
  • Filament supply
    • Isolated supply, 0-3A constant current (?)
  • HV Pulser / Mixer
  • LV Pulser / Mixer
  • Preamp (MCP)
  • Preamp (Channeltron)
  • E-Gun power supply

For the "Regular" experiment, we use the MCP preamp and LV pulser

For the "Metastable" experiment, we use the Channeltron preamp and HV pulser
