Spectroscopic studies on alpha particle-irradiated PADC (CR-39 detector)
Spectroscopic studies on a Poly Allyl Diglycol Carbonate (PADC or CR-39) detector irradiated with 5 MeV α-particles were carried out. The CR-39 samples were exposed to perpendicular incidence of α-particles with different fluence ranging from 0.85 × 109 ...

Effect of thermal annealing on optical properties of CR-39 polymeric track detector [PDF]
The samples of CR-39 polymer (TASTRAK, Bristol, England) were annealled thermally at various temperatures ranging from 100oC to 180oC for 1 hour, in air. FTIR spectroscopy reveals the structural degradation of CR-39 polymer due to thermal annealing above

New calibrations and time stability of the response of the INTERCAST CR-39 [PDF]
We present new calibrations of different production batches (from 1989 to 1999) of the INTERCAST CR-39, using the BNL-AGS 1 A GeV iron beam. The comparison with previous results, obtained with the 158 A GeV lead beam from the CERN-SPS shows that, while ...

Characterization of saturation of CR-39 detector at high alpha-particle fluence
The occurrence of saturation in the CR-39 detector reduces and limits its detection dynamic range; nevertheless, this range could be extended using spectroscopic techniques and by measuring the net bulk rate of the saturated CR-39 detector surface. CR-39

Colour reconnection in e+e- -> W+W- at sqrt(s) = 189 - 209 GeV [PDF]
The effects of the final state interaction phenomenon known as colour reconnection are investigated at centre-of-mass energies in the range sqrt(s) ~ 189-209 GeV using the OPAL detector at LEP.

Effect of heat treatment on some properties of CR-39 nuclear track detector irradiated by gamma ray
The present study aims to determine the effect of heat treatment on the bulk etch rate of un-irradiated and gamma irradiated CR-39 detector. Track density and the damage in samples surface due to the heat treatment have also studied for the un-irradiated
