This page gives an overview of the work I have done under the supervision of Dr. Richard Jones during the Fall 2013 semester.

I worked in the lab as a student worker during the summer of 2013. I spent my time working on a proposal for a chilled water line for the servers in P403. I finalized this document in the beginning of the Fall 2013 semester. It can be found here.

When I first gained access to the active collimator, I took it apart in order to understand its structure. Below are pictures that I took upon its disassembly.

  • Inside the active collimator. The tungsten pin cushions are secured onto the boron-nitride insulating cup.

  • The collimator's face plate.

  • The grounded cup.

  • A diagram that labels the components of the active collimator. Credit to Igor Senderovich.


I read Igor Senderovich's PhD thesis very carefully in order to understand the active collimator's purpose and how it works.
