Preliminary Results on Hydrophones Energy
Calibration with a Proton Beam
Giulia De Bonis University La Sapienza Rome,
ITALY
International ARENA Workshop May 17-19,
2005 DESY, Zeuthen
  • Results at an intense low-energy proton beam in
  • ITEP (Moscow),
  • special thanks to Vladimir Lyashuk and Andrei
    Rostovstev group
  • Nprotons 1010
  • Eprotons 100 MeV, 200 MeV

Overview
  • Hydrophones Characterization (Frequency Response)
  • Hydrophones Calibration on Proton Beam
  • Future Developments

RESON 4042 (modified)
previously used for 6 months at 2000 m depth.
Both hydrophones are pre-amplified ( 30 dB)

Frequency Response -the Hydrophones Sensitivity
  • Test at IDAC (CNR Roma)
  • Data Analysis Results

Experimental Set-Up
Hydrophone
The signal source (Reson ACS 9060) produces a
5KHz to 25 KHz sine wave (frequency sweep with a
step of 0.5 KHz).

Protons Interaction in Water -the Acoustic Signal

The Bragg Peak
  • If the proton energy is in the range 100-200
    MeV, the most of the primary proton energy is
    deposited at the Bragg Peak.

The Bragg Peak is a good approximation of a
localized high-density energy deposition in
water. Considering the Bragg Peak one can
simulate an acoustic source.

Number of entering protons
The voltage signal measured at the BCT channel is
proportional to the number of protons in the
emitted bunch. One can calculate Nproton using
the formula
Nproton ABCT V 2 C 108
where C is a parameter depending on machine
settings the C-value is given by machine
technicians.
More over, collimators, located downstream the
BCT, are used to modify the number of protons
interacting in water. We considered collimator
with diameter f 2, 3, 5 cm).

Future Plans
  • Simulation (Geant4) of proton beam energy
    deposition in water
  • Simulation of acoustic signal formation
  • Development of a tool for open sea hydrophone
    calibration (controlled sparker)
  • Simulation of acoustic signal from UHE neutrino
    induced showers in sea water
