Abstract
An experimental method is described for use with a charge-coupled devi ce (CCD) for the measurement of decay curves in beam-foil spectroscopy (bfs). The method realises the maximum possible illumination of the C CD, has a spectral resolvance equal to the irreducible width of bfs li nes and yields decay curves free from systematic error.
