23 Positrons: backgnd for nuclear physics exp ts Kapton at 16 MeV electron energy Hard bremsstrahlung produces a huge amount of positrons via pair production inside the target material. High-energy photons act as a volume source of positrons throughout the entire volume. Seite 23
24 Physics with GiPS: ZnO Learn about either absence of cation vacancies and/or hydrogen passivation. Has already worked nicely for YAG Used chemical vapor assisted phase transport (CVPT) as described in J. Cizek s talk.

A 495 (2002) 154 SC-LINAC in CW mode highest average power high yield and low pile-up High resolution lifetime spectrum with signal to noise ratios of better than 10 5 :1 using gamma-gamma coincidence techniques for background reduction. Lifetime spectra are free from artefacts. Long lifetimes reveal atomic defects caused by neutron-induced damage. Can (and how) defects be removed by thermal annealing? Page 25
26 Physics with GiPS: RPV steel Reactor vessel steel becomes brittle due to neutroninduced defects like open-volume defects. The atomic defects act as seeds for cracks. Collaboration with Reactor Safety Division. Preferential formation of double vacancies Thermal annealing (290 C) not sufficient to remove defects! Page 26
27 Physics with GiPS: Kapton Annihilation lifetime in Kapton has been under debate for quite some time - > get a measurement without source correction. Kapton applied cuts on Germanium and BaF 2 detector energy signal reduce background from interactions outside the sample consistent single positron lifetime of (381 ± 1) ps two components show larger χ 2 Page 27
