Keywords: osmium target, tungsten target, pulsed laser deposition, nuclear physics applications
The present research study focuses on the preparation and characterization of Os and W targets dedicated to nuclear astrophysics experiments. In general, this type of experiments requires very smooth targets in a pure metal form, without points or wrinkles and with extremly-precised...

Unique decay-enriched 251Cf material was recovered from aged 252Cf sources stored at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, purified, and electrodeposited onto thin Ti foils for use as targets in the study of Cf+48Ca fusion-evaporation reaction. The electrodepostion unit was designed with the assembled segment (Ti foil and frame) fitting into the side of the deposition well. Silicon gaskets were...

For the 3GeV Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) in J-PARC, charge stripper foil is a key technology to keep high operating rate for multi-turn injection of high-power proton synchrotrons. For a charge stripper foil in the RCS, we applied a Hybrid type thick Boron-doped Carbon (HBC: Boron 25%) foil which is produced with the arc-discharge method. The required foil thickness is about 1.5μm...
