Abstract
A complete identification in mass and nuclear charge for relativistic projectile fragments up to uranium is possible at the fragment separat or (FRS) at GSI by using the scintillation detector equipment describe d in this paper. It was successfully used in experiments with primary beams ranging from oxygen to uranium with energies from 300 to 1000 A MeV. A mass-resolving power of A/Delta A = 407 (FWHM) was obtained for 0.95 A GeV U-238 fragments.
