CATRiNA at Gamma Station beamline

Introduction

The Compound Array for Transfer Reactions in Nuclear Astrophysics (CATRiNA) [1] is neutron detector array located at Florida State University. CATRiNA is composed of 32 deuterated-benzene () liquid scintillators. The array consists of 16 "small" detectors which has 2" x 2" aluminum cell each and 16 "large" detectors that has a 4" x 2" aluminum cell each. Due to the special characteristic of the light-output of the deuterated material with the neutrons, the light-output can be converted to the neutron energy without time-of-flight information [2].

CATRiNA cable connection

Digitizer 1 is the master, and received the RF-coin signal. Digitizer 2 and 3 are the slaves, connected to the neutron detectors

The TRG-OUT of digi-2 and -3 will be "on" when ever any channel is fired. To do so, the Local Shaped Trigs [G] must be OR.

Time sync

Digitizer 1 is SW controll and internal clock. The TRG-OUT mode is "RUN".

Digitizer 2 and 3 are S-IN and external clock.
