“…In this setup, NeuLAND is located in the 0 • position and 14 m downstream of the target. Since the purpose of these simulations is to explore reduction techniques of the background in NeuLAND, a VETO detector of optimal design [10] was placed in this setup in front of NeuLAND. This optimal design is a single wall composed of 16 non-overlapping scintillator bars with a total area of 250 cm × 250 cm.…”

“…For the elimination of the charged-particle background by the VETO, straight lines from the location of the reaction at the target to the reconstructed first hits in NeuLAND were computed [10]. Subsequently, one reconstructed first hit is eliminated (vetoed) for each VETO signal.…”

“…However, that reconstructed first hit is only vetoed if its Time-of-Flight (TOF) is larger than that of the VETO signal. Otherwise, no reconstructed first hit is vetoed, because in this situation the VETO signal comes from backscattering [10]. In order to evaluate whether this method indeed vetoed charged particles, each reconstructed first hit was linked to its specific Monte Carlo track.…”

“…The production ratio of charged and uncharged particles is a crucial aspect in the simulations. The VETO wall eliminates a few percent of the incoming neutrons (due to hadronic interactions in the wall), and is capable of disentangling neutrons from charged particles in events where both particles hit NeuLAND simultaneously [10]. Clearly, the production ratio of charged and uncharged particles determines which of these two effects of the VETO wall is most important and, therefore, how effectively this VETO wall can eliminate charged-particle background.…”

“…The ideal detector geometry of such a VETO wall has been explored in Ref. [10]. In this work, we explore how effective this VETO wall is for the elimination of the charged-particle background through Monte Carlo simulations of several typical R 3 B-experiments.…”

The R3B collaboration aims to assemble an experimental setup with high resolution and efficiency to perform kinematically complete measurements of reactions with high-energy RIBs (radioactive ion beams). In the R3B experimental setup, the silicon tracker is positioned closest to the target region and can provide high-resolution position measurements of light-charged particles like protons. The three layers of the silicon tracker are constructed with a total of 30 Si double-sidedstrip detectors (DSSD). In this paper, as an option of 23 MeV proton irradiated n-type Float-Zone(Fz)Si double-sidedstrip detector (DSSD) havebeen considered, and by taking the two-trapproton irradiation damage model, the bulk damage effect and the macroscopic performance of the Sidouble-sidedstrip detector (DSSD) have been discussed. The detector is irradiated with three values of proton fluences (equivalent to 1Mev neutron fluence): 2×1014,5×1014 and 8×1014 cm-2. By using the Shockley-Read-Hall recombination (SRH) formulation, the full depletion voltage and leakage current have been measured as a function of the irradiation dose, finally the device and process parameters and specifications for the Si double-sidedstrip detector (DSSD) used in the R3B silicon tracker experimenthavebeen proposed.
