摘要:

粒子物理学中的探测器,特别是当包括低温部件时,通常封闭在容器中,这些容器在安装后不提供对探测器本身的任何物理或视觉访问。然而,对于实验来说,视觉上研究容器的内部可能是期望的。MicroBooNE低温恒温器拥有一个带有传感线平面的TPC,必须检查其是否损坏,如断裂或下垂。本文介绍了一种方法来查看内部的MicroBooNE低温恒温器与相机和镜子的设置,通过其低温服务喷嘴之一。本文介绍了相机和镜子选择的操作,照明和机械结构的设置。它解释了该系统是如何操作的,并演示了其性能。

英文摘要:

Detectors in particle physics, particularly when including cryogenic components, are often enclosed in vessels that do not provide any physical or visual access to the detectors themselves after installation. However, it can be desirable for experiments to visually investigate the inside of the vessel. The MicroBooNE cryostat hosts a TPC with sense-wire planes, which had to be inspected for damage such as breakage or sagging. This paper describes an approach to view the inside of the MicroBooNE cryostat with a setup of a camera and a mirror through one of its cryogenic service nozzles. The paper describes the camera and mirror chosen for the operation, the illumination, and the mechanical structure of the setup. It explains how the system was operated and demonstrates its performance.
