The Large Electron-Positron storage ring(LEP) at CERN is expected to produce e+e− collisions with luminosities of the order of 1032 cm −2 s −1, at eight interaction points, initially at c.m. energies up to 100 GeV, later up to 200 GeV. Only the 4 even-numbered interaction regions will be equipped with experiments during the first phase of the LEP. ALEPH is one of these, and will be located in pit 4. Here we briefly report on the present design and construction of ALEPH, as well as on some test results obtained with prototypes, and Monte Carlo simulations.

In a previous paper [Stoica, Popovici & Hubbard (2001),J. Appl. Cryst.34, 343–357], the phase-space analysis of neutron imaging by Bragg reflection from thick bent perfect crystals or multi-wafer assemblies resulted in the derivation of various imaging conditions. An array of new applications becomes possible, including dispersive and non-dispersive neutron imaging at a sub-millimetre spatial resolution. This paper outlines the experimental test results on non-dispersive imaging with thick packets of silicon wafers. The experimental results are compared with Monte Carlo simulations.

Energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDS) performed at low (≤ 5 kV) accelerating voltages in the SEM has the potential for providing quantitative microanalytical information with a spatial resolution of ∼100 nm. In the present work, EDS analyses were performed on magnesium ferrite spinel [(MgxFe1−x)Fe2O4] dendrites embedded in a MgO matrix, as shown in Fig. 1. spatial resolution of X-ray microanalysis at conventional accelerating voltages is insufficient for the quantitative analysis of these dendrites, which have widths of the order of a few hundred nanometers, without deconvolution of contributions from the MgO matrix. However, Monte Carlo simulations indicate that the interaction volume for MgFe2O4 is ∼150 nm at 3 kV accelerating voltage and therefore sufficient to analyze the dendrites without matrix contributions.Single-crystal {001}-oriented MgO was reacted with hematite (Fe2O3) powder for 6 h at 1450°C in air and furnace cooled. The specimen was then cleaved to expose a clean cross-section suitable for microanalysis.
