A simple in situ calibration technique for soft x‐ray film

A novel method for surface temperature measurement using temperature sensitive paint (TSP) is presented. Precalibration of the TSP is shown and a semi in situ calibration technique using thermocouples is provided for high accuracy measurement. The method presented is applied to a film cooling experiment with a maximum surface temperature of 430 K and compared to highly reliable infrared thermography measurements that serve as benchmark results. The in situ calibration technique shows a maximum deviation of 0.5 K from the thermocouple readings. The comparison of laterally averaged temperature distributions of TSP and infrared measurement shows excellent agreement.

Complicated Process

Abstract In situ gamma ray spectrometry was developed to quickly measure large areas of land following nuclear accidents. However, a proper calibration of detectors for in situ measurements is a long and complicated process. One tool designed to make this calibration quick is the InSiCal software. We compared 5,000 s in situ measurements with two different HPGe detectors calibrated using the InSiCal software and laboratory measurements of samples collected at the same locations. Our findings suggest that in situ gamma spectrometry using InSiCal software can provide reasonably accurate data, but some improvements are needed.

In Situ Calibration

X-ray spectroscopy is an advantageous tool for investigation of the shift and width of the energy levels in kaonic atoms, evoked due to strong interaction between nucleus and kaon. In order to study the 2p level shift in kaonic 3 He , the X-ray transition 3 p →2 d in liquid kaonic 3 He will be measured with a precision of <2 eV in the E17 experiment at J-PARC. To reach this desired precision, a well designed setup, in-situ calibration and state-of-the-art semiconductor detectors will be used. The idea and the preparation status of the whole setup will be reported in this article.
