Beam monitor

Because the beam monitor allows accurate measurement of the total number of ions that are analyzed, a graded series of exposures (i.e., with varying numbers of ions impinging on the plate) is collected, resulting in the detection of a wide range of concentrations, from matrix elements to trace levels of impurities. In Figure 2, the values of the individual exposures have been replaced with the concentration range that can be expected for a mono-isotopic species just visible on that exposure. In this example, exposures from a known Pt sample have been added to determine the response curve of the emulsion. [Pg.601]

Due to the relative uniformity of ion formation by the RF spark (although its timing is erratic), the most widely used method of quantitation in SSMS is to assume equal sensitivity for all elements and to compare the signal for an individual element with that of the total number of ions recorded on the beam monitor. By empirically calibratii the number of ions necessary to produce a certain blackness on the plate detector, one can estimate the concentration. The signal detected must be corrected for isotopic abundance and the known mass response of the ion-sensitive plate. By this procedure to accuracies within a factor of 3 of the true value can be obtained without standards. [Pg.605]

As will be shown later, the surface coverages of CO vary with distance into the pellet during CO adsorption and desorption, as a result of intrapellet diffusion resistances. However, the infrared beam monitors the entire pellet, and thus the resulting absorption band reflects the average surface concentration of CO across the pellet s depth. Therefore, for the purpose of direct comparison between theory and experiment, the integral-averaged CO coverage in the pellet... [Pg.91]

Measurements of dynamics in the subnanosecond regime are possible using pump-SH probe experiments where an initial pulse causes either a photo- or thermal excitation of the sample and the SH probe beam monitors the transient surface properties [69, 72, 73, 118-120]. Although experiments of this type have yet to be reported for an electrochemical system, experiments on Si samples excited under ambient and vacuum conditions have been published [69, 72, 73, 120].

One special function would be dosimetry which establishes a relationship between the voltage provided by the beam monitor and the absorbed irradiation dose. For convenience, in several experimental set-ups dose is expressed as the initial radical concentration in the measuring cell. From optical measurements, the concentration can be calculated for a known molar absorptivity. The plot of concentration vs. the electrical value should result in a straight line. The slope and, possibly, a small intercept, are stored as the dosimetry data. If in a second channel the conductance is measured simultaneously, the cell constant can be determined for a known change in conductance. [Pg.112]

It has been stressed [Blostein 2001 Blostein 2003 (a) Blostein 2003 (b) Cowley 2003] that an accurate determination of the incident neutron intensity I Eq) is essential for the determination of cross section ratios on VESU-VIO. I Eq) was measured using the VESUVIO incident beam monitor 1 (see Fig. 1). The incident energy of the neutrons is related to their time of flight measured in the monitor via... [Pg.454]

Collimating s//ts-these are located on either side of the sample. A beam monitor on the precollimating slit allows the primary detector to be scaled to absolute reflectivites. [Pg.155]

All neutron instruments require beam monitors to measure the incident flux. There may also be a transmission monitor after the sample. [Pg.86]

To obtain S(Q,a>) from the measured data it is necessary to know the instrumental flight paths, the energy of the incident neutrons and the angles of the detectors. The incident energy is found from the beam monitors. The first monitor is normally placed before the Fermi chopper to monitor the incident flux for the purposes of normalisation. The... [Pg.117]

Figure 1. Schematic view of CRYRING. Molecular ions are created in the ion source MINIS, accelerated and mass selected. In some cases they are further accelerated by the Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ), and injected into the ring. The accelerating system is used to further increase the ion energy. Reaction products from the electron cooler section exit the ring and hit detectors located on the 0° arm. The scintillation detector, which detects neutral particles arising from collisions of the stored beam with rest gas molecules, is used as a beam monitor.

The oscilloscope mode is also used to optimise detectors and the driving conditions of picosecond diode lasers. Another potential application is beam monitoring in synchrotrons. Furthermore, the oscilloscope mode is a convenient way to optimise TCSPC system parameters, such as signal delay, CFD zero cross and threshold, and TAC parameters. [Pg.212]

The diffraction pattern changes drastically at 5 ps in the late-time domain, when the solute molecules are partly released into the vacuum.
