Abstract |
The calibration of the CR39 (R) and Makrofol (R) Nuclear Track Detectors of the MoEDAL experiment at the CERN-LHC was performed by exposing stacks of detector foils to heavy ion beams with energies ranging from 340 MeV/nucleon to 150 GeV/nucleon. After chemical etching, the base areas and lengths of etch-pit cones were measured using automatic and manual optical microscopes. The response of the detectors as measured by the ratio of the track-etching rate over the bulk-etching rate, was determined over a range extending from their threshold at Z/beta 7 and 50 for CR39 and Makrofol, respectively, up to Z/beta 92. |
