1 Final Remarks

2 Workshop program

3 Remarks Large synergies with other neutron detectors: MONSTER, DESCANT Continuous feed back from gamma spectroscopy arrays: AGATA, GALILEO, EXOGAM2, PARIS –Electronics coupling –Final geometry Importance of charged particle detectors, TRACE, DIAMANT Physics need of neutron detectors –Interest of the gamma spectroscopy groups (2n,3n) –Reaction + FARCOS (energy information, angular) Good understanding of the simulations –First test and comparison with simulations  Very good agreement! –Unitary cell size and global geometry for NEDA Mechanics for NEDA (D. Jenkins will start discussion with J. Simpson, Daresbury) Electronics: Synergies between different detectors: EXOGAM2, NEDA, PARIS, DIAMANT

4 BC501A and BC537 detectors Currently bought commercial detectors from Saint Gobain Two detectors 5”x5” BC537 (LNL-INFN) Two detectors 5”x5” BC501A (York-Valencia) A. Pipidis (founded SP2PP) working on the characterization of the detectors.

5 Following steps Test of the prototype BC501A in Valencia/LNL/Warsaw/Uppsala –Efficiency –Cross talk –… SIPM tests with neutron detectors – Synergies with PARIS (D. Jenkins) Decission before April/May 2011 on the FADC needed for NEDA  M. Tripon Steering Committee decision on the final geometry for NEDA Steering Committee decision on the liquid scintilator to be used Steering Committee phases of NEDA Final MoU November 2011.

6 Phases of NEDA The current development on new materials and readout systems for neutron detection makes necessary to build NEDA in four different phases: Phase 0: Upgrade of Neutron Wall with digital electronics. Phase 1: R&D on new material and light readout systems for a highly segmented neutron detector array. Phase 3: Construction of a limited size Demonstrator Phase 4: Final construction of NEDA

7 Budget issues Three main options: –200 detectors BC501A – PM readout –Digital electronics Total cost: 600K€ (BC501A) + 200K€(Elec.) + 40K€ (mechanics) = 840 K€ –200 detectors BC536 – PM readout – Digital electronics Total cost: 2000K€ (BC537) + 200K€(Elec.) + 40K€ (mechanics) = 2240 K€ –Upgrade Neutron Wall - Phase 0 (Digital electronics) Total cost (50 channels) = 40K€
