摘要:

本文介绍了一种用于富氙天文台(EXO)的线性射频离子阱(REF)的设计、结构和性能。EXO旨在探测$^{136}$氘到$^{136}$钡的无中微子双β衰变。为了抑制可能的背景,EXO将补充衰变能量的测量,并在一定程度上,在一个充满中子的探测器中的候选事件的拓扑结构与子核($^{136}$ Ba)的识别。这里描述的离子阱能够接受、冷却和限制从候选双β衰变事件的位点提取的单个Ba离子。然后可以通过激光光谱学以大的信噪比识别单个捕获的离子。

英文摘要:

The design, construction, and performance of a linear radio-frequency ion trap (RFQ) intended for use in the Enriched Xenon Observatory (EXO) are described. EXO aims to detect the neutrinoless double-beta decay of $^{136}$Xe to $^{136}$Ba. To suppress possible backgrounds EXO will complement the measurement of decay energy and, to some extent, topology of candidate events in a Xe filled detector with the identification of the daughter nucleus ($^{136}$Ba). The ion trap described here is capable of accepting, cooling, and confining individual Ba ions extracted from the site of the candidate double-beta decay event. A single trapped ion can then be identified, with a large signal-to-noise ratio, via laser spectroscopy.
