Calculation of the Effective Energy Release Centerʼs Position of Inorganic Scintillation Detectors for Calibration at Small “Source–Detector” Distances Lukashevich, R.; Fokov, G. Inorganic scintillation detectors are widely used to measure of dose rate in the environment due to their high sensitivity to photon radiation. A distinctive feature when using such detectors is the need to take into account of the position of the effective energy release center. This peculiarity is actual when using measuring instruments with inorganic scintillation detectors as working standards during calibration at short “source–detector” distances in conditions of low-background shield or using a facility with protection from external gamma radiation background in the dose rate range from 0.03 to 0.3 μSv/h (μGy/h). The purpose of this work was to calculate the position of the effective energy release center of NaI(Tl) scintillation detectors and to take it into account when working at short “source–detector” distances. An original method of determining the position of the effective energy release center when irradiating the side and end surfaces of inorganic scintillation detector with parallel gamma radiation flux and point gamma radiation sources at small “source–detector” distances using Monte Carlo methods is proposed. The results of calculations of the position of the effective energy release center of NaI(Tl) based detectors of “popular” sizes for the cases of parallel gamma radiation flux and point sources of gamma radiation at small “source–detector” distances are presented. The functional dependences of the position of the effective energy release center of NaI(Tl) based detectors on the distance to the point gamma radiation sources and the energy of gamma radiation sources are presented. As a result of the study it was found that for scintillation NaI(Tl) detectors of medium size (for example, Ø25×40 mm or Ø40×40 mm) the point gamma radiation source located at a distance of 1 m or more, creates a radiation field which does not differ in characteristics from the radiation field created by a parallel flux of gamma radiation. It is shown that approaching the point gamma radiation source to the surface of scintillation detector leads to displacement of the position of the effective energy release center to the surface of the detector.

Evaluation of the Magnet Breakaway Force Measurement Accuracy of the NT-800 Sensors for Early Detection of Defects of Their Manufacturing Kutsepau, A.; Kren, A.; Hnutsenka, Y. Сontrol of mechanical stresses formed with the deposition of nickel coatings plays an important role in the diagnosis of coatings’ technical condition. Large internal stresses can lead to cracking or flaking of coatings which is completely unacceptable for critical parts and assembly units used, for example, in space technology for which reliability is of paramount importance. An important aspect of internal stresses monitoring is the measurement error of the instruments used. The purpose of this work was to determine the characteristics of the device sensors, which make the assessment of their manufacturing possible at the preliminary stage of the measuring equipment assembling in order to maintain the required accuracy of subsequent measurements. In most cases the measurement error assessment is possible only after the equipment manufacture and calibration. In this paper it is proposed to evaluate the accuracy characteristics of device sensors based on the precision (repeatability and reproducibility) of the primary informative parameter recording. In the case of the NT-800 device that was developed at the Institute of Applied Physics of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus the effect of precision characteristics deterioration on the eventual measurement error is demonstrated. Determining the precision parameters before establishing correlation dependences between the primary informative parameter and the measured characteristic is proposed in order to reject poorly manufactured sensors and reduce labor costs. In particular, measurements of the magnitude proportional to the magnetic breakaway force were carried out using the NT-800 device with nickel specimens simulating coatings with a thickness of 200 to 700 μm and a rolling value from 0 to 40 %. It was established that in the case of well-made sensors the variation coefficient calculated from the dispersion of repeatability is in the range 0.2–0.6 %, and the variation coefficient calculated from the dispersion of reproducibility does not exceed 0.9 %. In the case of a sensor with the sensitive element parameters worsened, the variation coefficient of repeatability and reproducibility were up by one and a half times. Deterioration of the precision characteristics resulted in significant changes in the readings of the calibrated instrument. Thus the absolute measurement error for a sensor with a poorly made sensitive element turned out to be approximately 3 times higher in the range of 200– 300 MPa than that for a sensor with good precision parameters.

Digital Spectral Analysis by means of the Method of Averag Modified Periodograms Using Binary-Sign Stochastic Quantization of Signals Yakimov, V. N. The method of averaging modified periodograms is one of the main methods for estimating the power spectral density (PSD). The aim of this work was the development of mathematical and algorithmic support, which can increase the computational efficiency of signals digital spectral analysis by this method. The solution to this problem is based on the use of binary-sign stochastic quantization for converting the analyzed signal into a digital code. A special feature of this quantization is the use of a randomizing uniformly distributed auxiliary signal as a stochastic continuous quantization threshold (threshold function). Taking into account the theory of discrete-event modeling the result of binary-sign quantization is interpreted as a chronological sequence of instantaneous events in which its values change. In accordance with this we have a set of time samples that uniquely determine the result of binary-sign quantization in discrete-time form. Discrete-event modeling made it possible to discretize the process of calculating PSD estimates. As a result, the calculation of PSD estimates was reduced to discrete processing of the cosine and sine Fourier transforms for window functions. These Fourier transforms are calculated analytically based on the applied window functions. The obtained mathematical equations for calculating the PSD estimates practically do not require multiplication operations. The main operations of these equations are addition and subtraction. As a consequence, the time spent on digital spectral analysis of signals is reduced. Numerical experiments have shown that the developed mathematical and algorithmic support allows us to calculate the PSD estimates by the method of averaging modified periodograms with a high frequency resolution and accuracy even for a sufficiently low signal-to-noise ratio. This result is especially important for spectral analysis of broadband signals. The developed software module is a problem-oriented component that can be used as part of metrologically significant software for the operational analysis of complex signals.

Impulsively-Laser Excitation and Propagation of Ultrasonic Waves through Nanomagnetic Fluid Baev, A. R.; Mitkovets, A. I.; Asadchaya, M. V.; Mayorov, A. L. Magnetic fluids belong to the class of nanomaterials with a high gain of light absorption, aggregative and sedimentation stability as well as controllability by external fields, which is of interest to use in the field of optoacoustics. The purpose of the work was to experimentally study the effect of the optoacoustic transformation in a magnetic fluid, depending on the concentration of magnetic colloidal particles, boundary conditions, intensity of the laser as well as to identify the possibilities of using the magnetic fluid as an element of the optoacoustic transformation in a number of applications. A brief analysis of the optoacoustic transformation mechanism in a magnetic fluid was carried out and a technique and an installation that implements the shadow measurement variant developed. A Lotis type laser was used as a source of ultrasonic pulse-laser excitation in magnetic fluids. A quartz and air were used as a material transmitting the energy of laser radiation in a magnetic fluid. Receiving of ultrasound signals was made by a piezoelectric probe at a working frequency of 5 MHz. In the measurement process, the concentration of the dispersed phase in tmagnetic fluid was varied from zero to 8 % and the energy in the impulse – from zero to 10 mJ. For the first time, it was established that: a) an amplitude of the function of the optoacoustic transformation in a magnetic fluid, depending on the concentration of the dispersed phase, has a maximum determined by the fluid physical properties and boundary conditions; b) for all samples within the measurement error, a quasilinear dependence of the specified amplitude of energy in the laser pulse in the range of 0–8 MJ has been established. A number ways of the optoacoustic effects in magnetic fluids to use in ultrasonic testing, measuring the intensity of the laser radiation had been suggested.
