The Electronic System of the Polarized-Neutron Reflectometer for the IR-8 Reactor

Resumo

The electronics for functional units of the polarized-neutron reflectometer (PNR) is presented. The electronic system connects the reflectometer units to the PNR control computer and provides control of step motors and absolute sensors for moving the experimental equipment, specification and change of the parameters of devices during operation, and acquisition of experimental data in the graphic and digital forms. Devices developed by the Petersburg Nuclear Physics Institute are also included in the electronic system.
