A CT Scanner Using Coincidence Techniques
(Houghton College, 2014-05-19)A CT scanner has been designed which uses gamma rays produced by positron annihilation. A low-activity 22Na source produces the positrons, which, when they annihilate, create 0.511 MeV gamma rays travelling in opposite ... -

A Low-Cost Van de Graaff Accelerator
(Houghton College, 2002-05-08)A small, low-cost Van de Graaff electrostatic accelerator capable of accelerating electrons and producing bremsstrahlung x-rays has been constructed using components commonly found in most undergraduate physics laboratories. ... -
A Measurement of the 12C(n,2n)11C Cross-Section Needed for an Inertial Confinement Fusion Diagnostic
(Houghton College, 2013-08-02)Geneseo-Houghton Research Roundup, SUNY Geneseo (Geneseo, NY). -
A Measurement of the 12C(n,2n)11C Cross-Section Needed for an Inertial Confinement Fusion Diagnostic

A Measurement of the 12c(N,2n)11c Cross-Section for Use as an Inertial Confinement Fusion Diagnostic
(Houghton College, 2014-05-06)In inertial confinement fusion (ICF), nuclear fusion reactions are initiated by bombarding a small fuel pellet with high power lasers. One ICF diagnostic involves measuring the high-energy neutron yield via activation of ... -
A Measurement of the 12C(n,2n)11C Cross-Section for Use as an Inertial Confinement Fusion Diagnostic
(Houghton College, 2014-04-05)XXXIII Annual Rochester Symposium for Physics Students, University of Rochester (Rochester, NY). -
A Measurement of the Muon Magnetic Moment Using Cosmic Rays
(Houghton College, 2001-11-03)The muon magnetic moment is being measured via the decay of polarized cosmic-ray muons in a 44 G magnetic field. One, thick, 102.0 x 20.6 x 5.4 cm plastic scintillator detector was placed between two, 101.5 x 20.6 x 1.6 ...Rochester Academy of Science, 28th Annual Paper Session, Nazareth College, Rochester NY. November 3, 2001. -
A Measurement of the Muon Magnetic Moment Using Cosmic Rays
(Houghton College, 2002-05-08)The muon magnetic moment was measured via the decay of polarized cosmic-ray muons in a constant magnetic field with a three-scintillator detector system. Cosmic-ray muons stop in the central detector, precess in the magnetic ... -

A Novel 1st Generation Computed Tomography Scanner
(Houghton College, 2003-12-19)A preliminary design for a first generation tomography scanner is being designed and constructed. The scanner uses Na-22 as the radiation source, with annihilation photons being counted by shielded NaI detectors. The novel ... -
A Parity Violation Experiment for Undergraduate Laboratories
(Houghton College, 2017-05-19)The discovery of parity violation in weak interactions was a foundational discovery of the 20th century, first proposed by Lee and Yang in 1956 and experimentally verified by Wu in 1957. Lee and Yang also proposed a simpler ... -

A Phoswich Detector System to Measure Sub-Second Half-Lives using ICF Reactions
(Houghton College, 2017-10-23)The 3H(t,γ)6He cross section has not been measured at any bombarding energy due to the difficulties of simultaneously producing both a tritium beam and target at accelerator labs. An alternative technique may be to use an ...Omega Laser User’s Group Meeting, Laboratory for Laser Energetics, Rochester, NY, April 25, 2018; XXXVII Annual Rochester Symposium for Physics Students, SUNY Brockport, Brockport, NY., April 7, 2018; 59th Annual Meeting ... -
A possible 12C(n,2n)11C total cross section measurement
(Houghton College, 2011-11-14)Tertiary neutron production can be used as an indicator of the burn fraction of a deuterium-tritium pellet in inertial confinement fusion reactions. One way to monitor tertiary neutrons is by carbon activation using the ...XXXI Annual Rochester Symposium for Physics Students, Siena College, Loudonville, NY, April 14, 2012; 53rd Annual Meeting of the APS Division of Plasma Physics, Salt Lake City, Utah, November 14-18, 2011. -
