A new neutron measurement site is currently being established at the local cyclotron. The goal is to quantify the radiation hardness of detector electronics that are intended for deployment in high-dose environments at hadron physics experiments.
To achieve this, an existing experimental area of the cyclotron, which has been inactive for several decades, is being reactivated.
As part of this process, the neutron beam line needs to be precisely determined, as a large copper collimator must be aligned along the direction of the neutron beam. In the outlined approach, an industry-grade laser tracker was used in conjunction with customized beam diagnostic tools. Both the survey equipment and the methodology will be presented in the seminar.
