## Summary

The United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority has awarded a contract for the purchase of a MAST-U Replacement Spectroscopy Camera. The contract, with an estimated value of £47,850, was awarded to Teledyne Princeton Instruments. The procurement process was classified under the CPV code for Spectroscopy devices. The tender was a limited procurement method without prior publication of a contract notice. The contract period is from 12th January 2024 to 12th February 2024.

This opportunity for business growth in the field of scientific-grade Electron Multiplication Charge-Coupled Device sensors is suited for businesses involved in spectroscopy devices. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are deemed suitable for this contract. The United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority, based in Abingdon, ENG, initiated this tender process. Businesses in the UK and beyond, including British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, and Isle of Man, could benefit from participating in this procurement process.

## Notice

UKAEA has need for a scientific-grade Electron Multiplication Charge-Coupled Device sensor for a passive spectroscopy diagnostic to replace a Princeton Instruments ProEM 1024b camera used as diagnostics for MAST-U. The instrument will be connected to a UV-visible Czerny-Turner spectrometer manufactured by Princeton Instruments (now Teledyne Princeton Instruments), model 2500a, via a c-mount adaptor. It will measure the spectrum of light emitted from the MAST Upgrade tokamak at high spectral resolution (~0.1nm). The diagnostic, including the camera, will operate routinely to measure spectra of visible (400-800nm) and near-UV (300-400nm) radiation during experiments.
