Abstract

A method is described for continuously varying the Van de Graaff ion beam energy while the count rate from the decay of the compound nucleus is monitored and recorded. The method utilizes a synchronous motor system to synchronize the recorder and the magnetic field control of the Van de Graaff analyzing system. Use of this method results in significant time saving in calibration of the Van de Graaff accelerator and the determination of target thicknesses. (auth)
