Abstract
A simple time-to-pulse-height converter working with tunnel burden is described. The equipment is especially well suited for measuring the time of light of neutrons generated in a cyclotron. The starting signals used are the plate current pulses of a 56 AVP or a similar photomultiplier. A sine wave decoupled at the power oscillator of the cyclotron generates the stopping pulses. The frequency of the sine wave may be 3 up to 40 Mc/s. The linear range of the converter is shorter by 7 ns than the period of the sine wave. With the Karlsruhe isochronous cyclotron a line width of the prompt gamma radiation of 1.6 ns was measured.
