Utilization of Neutron Bang-time CVD diamond detectors at the Z Accelerator

POSTER

Abstract

We are utilizing Chemical Vapor Deposited (CVD) Diamond detectors at \textasciitilde 2.3 meters on the Z accelerator to infer neutron bang-times from Magnetized Liner Inertial Fusion (MagLIF) sources yielding up to 3e12 DD neutrons and to bound the neutron time history of Deuterium Gas Puff loads producing 5e13 DD neutrons. The current implementation of the diagnostic and initial results will be shown as well as our future plans for the diagnostic.
