Acquisition System

A new GPIB/IEEE-488 based data acquisition system has been built for the Groningen proportional counter setup, consisting of 11 counters. The IEEE bus is connected to an XT-compatible host PC. A versatile computer program controls the data entry; the same program can be used offline for final calculations.

New System

We present here the principal ideas of a new, fully computerized data acquisition system with pulse-rise background reduction, developed in the Gliwice Radiocarbon Laboratory, and our first results. The new system uses a microprocessor-controlled pulse and coincidence analyzer for acquisition of data from 3 of 4 proportional counter sets. The analyzer acquires and stores information on the pulse's amplitudes and rise-times and their coincidence with guard counters and radio-frequency shield. This feature allows us to separate pulses using anticoincidence information and pulse-shape discrimination. The described method of background reduction led to a significant increase in the factor of merit on 2 of 3 counters tested.

Good Agreement

A fast neutron data acquisition system involving a curved position-sensitive proportional counter is described. The system permits simultaneous measurement of diffraction data over an angular range of 130 degrees at moderate resolution. Data for amorphous carbon are compared with x-ray diffraction data. Structure functions derived from the different methods are in good agreement. Amorphous carbon is a useful standard for the comparison of diffraction data from different laboratories.
