校准cosmic-ray观测站的laser试验梁

Calibrating laser test-beams for cosmic-ray observatories

Lawrence Wiencke, Fernando Arqueros, John Compton, Maria Monasor, David Pilger, Jaime Rosado

摘要:

脉冲紫外激光器可以为使用光学探测器,特别是荧光探测器的天文台提供有用的“测试光束”,以测量高能宇宙射线。探测器观察到的光与激光脉冲的能量成正比。由于激光的绝对能量可以在本地测量,因此校准良好的激光器提供了一种实用的方法来测试宇宙射线探测器的光度校准,包括大气校正。这张海报将描述用于激光偏振和能量校准的机器人系统。介绍了用不同厂家的能量探头对激光能量和偏振的实验室测量

英文摘要:

Pulsed UV lasers can provide useful "testbeams" for observatories that use optical detectors, especially fluorescence detectors, to measure high energy cosmic-rays. The light observed by the detector is proportional to the energy of the laser pulse. Since the absolute laser energy can be measured locally, a well-calibrated laser offers a practical way to test the photometric calibration of the cosmic-ray detector including atmospheric corrections. This poster will describe a robotic system for laser polarization and energy calibration. Laboratory measurements of laser energies and polarizations by energy probes from different manufactures will be presented
