Construction of Gamma Activation Experimental Platform for Shanghai Laser Electron Gamma Source
Shanghai Laser Electron Gamma Source(SLEGS)is a quasi-monoenergetic,and energy-tunable MeV gamma-rays source generated by the inverse Laser Compton Scattering(LCS)of lasers and electrons.SLEGS is the only LCS gamma source in the world with a continuously variable collision angular range.The gamma activation analysis is one of the effective methods to study the properties of materials.This paper introduces the gamma activation platform of SLEGS,including the online activation experiment,the low background offline measurement,and the energy and efficiency calibration for the high purity germanium(HPGe)detector.The counting rate of the shielded HPGe has been controlled down to 5.2 cps/s within 60 keV～3 MeV region under the current low background environment.The activation platform of the SLEGS has provided fa-vorable conditions for gamma activation measurements,which will play an important role in future research in the fields of nuclear physics,nuclear astrophysics,medical applications,materials science,and environmental science.
