Abstract:

Beam related radiation damage observed during the last Rad$ (JLab E94-016) run is discussed. It is shown the damage causes a gradual degradation in response of calorimeter elements near the beam hole and is therefore unlikely to be caused by anomalous beam conditions. The damage rate is quantified and the effect of curing with UV light is discussed.
