2 Summary A new microchannel-plate neutron time-of-flight (MCP ntof) detector was developed and tested on OMEGA The MCP ntof has only a MCP photomultiplier tube without a scintillator; the signal is produced as a result of direct neutron interaction with the MCP Eliminating the scintillator removes the scintillator decay from the instrument response function (IRF) and makes the detector faster; the MCP ntof is the fastest ntof detector currently in use on OMEGA The MCP ntof is practically insensitive to DD neutrons and can be used only for yield and ion-temperature (T i ) measurements in highyield DT shots The MCP ntof was tested.3 m from the target, but will be permanently moved to 1.9 m to improve T i measurement precision E78
3 The MCP ntof consists of a thin Al housing with a Photek* PMT14 photomultiplier A 1-mm-thick lead plate can be attached in the front Photek PMT14 single-stage MCP Hamamatsu MCP parameters effective diameter: 4 mm pore diameter: 1 nm pore pitch: 1 nm thickness:. mm MCP ntof at.3 m on OMEGA with lead plate attached E79 *Photek Ltd., East Sussex, UK TN38 9NS, see 3

5 The MCP ntof is practically insensitive to DD neutrons Shot with a DD yield of MCP ntof scintillator signal Ch The typical MCP lead glass* is 48% Pb, % O, and 18% Si Neutrons produced charge particles through (n, p) and (n, a) reactions For Pb, O, and Si threshold of proton and alpha production are above.
