E8 3D View

E8 Experimental Area

E8 experimental hall will accommodate five experimental setups that utilize the high brilliance gamma beam for photonuclear reactions in the field of nuclear resonance fluorescence, nuclear astrophysics, photofission and industrial applications.

In addition, there will be several beam diagnostic setups for gamma beam profile and polarization monitoring.

Main Activities

NRF studies
Charge particle detection
Photofission studies
Industrial radiography and tomography
NRF-based elemental analysis
Gamma beam monitoring

Equipment

Array of 8 segmented HPGe clover detectors and 4 CeBr3 detectors (ELIADE)
Time projection chamber (ELI-TPC)
Thick gaseous electron multipliers (ELI-THGEM)
ELI-Bragg ionization chamber (ELI-BIC)
Positioning systems for industrial objects
2D gamma beam profile monitor

Topics

Photoactivation studies, e.g. 180Ta decay study
NRF studies of least abandoned isotopes, e.g. investigation of actinide nuclei
Investigation of the Pygmy Dipole Resonance
Multi alpha-particle decay of light nuclei such as 12C and 16O
Cross section measurements of photo-dissociation reactions (γ,p) or (γ,α)
Mapping of the fission barriers through studies of transmission fission resonances
Studies of rare fission modes
High resolution radiography and tomography of industrial objects
Active interrogations of special nuclear materials
