Detectors

The MoNA Facility is made up of four main components. The Modular Neutron Array (MoNA) is a highly-efficency neutron detector which measures the properties of the neutrons coming from the reaction. Its companion detector, the Large multi-Instituional Scintillator Array (LISA), is of a similar design. The Sweeper Magnet is a high-field dipole magnet that "sweeps" the charged particles into the Charged Particle Detector Box. The Charged Particle system includes Cathode-ray Drift tube detectors and a CsI(Na) hodoscope.

For more information more information about MoNA-LISA, the Sweeper Magnet, and Charged Particle Detectors, please visit their individual pages.

Charged particles are swept into a the focal plane charged particle detectors by the Sweeper magnet.

LISA, the Large multi-Institution Scintillator Array, has recently been completed by the Collaboration.

MoNA is composed of 144 individual detector bars that can be assembled in a variety of configurations.
