Parameter monitoring system of the Dubna Gas-Filled Recoil Separator

Abstract

PC-based one-crate monitoring and control system of the Dubna Gas Filled Recoil Separator (DGFRS) is considered. It is developed for the long-term experiments at the U400 FLNR cyclotron and is aimed at the synthesis of super heavy nuclei in heavy ion induced complete fusion reactions. Parameters related to: a) beam and cyclotron; b) separator by itself, c) detection system, d) target and entrance window are measured and stored in the protocol file of the experiment. Special attention is paid to generating the “alarm” signals and implementing further the appropriate procedures.
