I have not tested the setup with a neutron source yet, but only a decent amount of radium, to which it did not respond at all. This morning I went and bought an o-scope, as no one near me had one. It is a Leader LBO-524 40 MHz. (I also repaired my LBO-508 20 MHz today.) Although it does not have a s...

Under normal circumstances, I would agree with you about that being an issue. However, it was given a restoration by Richard just a few years back, and seems to still be running well. (The thing has more 12ax7's than you can shake a stick at anyways...) I do wonder if you can somehow run the output ...

Right now I pretty much have everything complete. I have made runs with H2 and more than adequate current/voltage. However, it isn't worth anyone's time to report on that without neutron measurements. Some problems have left me in the dark. My setup currently consists of the following ran out of a T...

Hello, I'm looking to either rent (<1 week) or buy a bubble dosimeter with a little life left in it. I can pay through PayPal or other methods. Just let me know as soon as possible.

Thank you, Rich! Yes, the ceramic to metal seals on many of such capacitors are vacuum tight. Specifically the hermetically sealed, oil-filled ones with a steel case. My current feedthrough is made from a NOS one that was intended to go on a 60kv capacitor. I purchased it from Richard Hull a while b...

My first light!! (on 2-18-19) I couldn't wait any longer to start testing, so I wired the XRT to 120 VAC, threw together a grid, pumped the system down, and turned on the variac. I initally used only the Welch to get down to ~20 microns before turning on the power. After a bit of cleaning, I was dow...

Really this should have been asked in the new user area, as this is already explained in the FAQ.

I'm unsure of what you measured it with, but 62kcpm isn't exactly a hot rock.

Update: According to Bruce's gauge, my 1402 can pump down to 5.3 millitorr after ~15 min. I'm now waiting for an iso63 adapter to come in so that I can hook up both gauges at once.
