Abstract

In this work, we investigated the possibility of selectively detecting carbon ion bunches collectively accelerated in a Luce diode by a time-of-flight spectrometry of neutrons from the threshold reaction 2H(12C,n)13N induced in Ca(OD)2 layers deposited on Mo substrates by ‘staining’ lime freshly prepared by quenching CaO in heavy water. Oxygen and calcium isotopes do not produce any interference with the analytical reaction on the carbon and proton bunches. This spectrometry confirms that 12C ions and protons are collectively accelerated at the same speed, and 12C ions are captured in this acceleration all the way from the anode to the target, regardless of the conditions of the near-anode plasma.
