Open frame sample holder

for the muon veto cryostat insert

[sample holder frame]

This is the standard sample holder for the muon veto cryostat insert.

The outside of the frame is 3.81 cm (1.50 inch) square by 0.16 cm (0.0625 inch) thick, and the central opening is 3.17 cm (1.25 inch) wide by 2.86 cm (1.125 inch) long.

The sample is mounted in the center between thin Mylar sheets which allow muons to pass through. The sample size is limited by the sample chamber of the muon veto insert.

The holder is made of low-oxygen copper, and attaches to the sample rod and thermometry block by 4 screws (#2-56).
