L. Delperal et al., LOW-ENERGY ION IDENTIFICATION METHOD USING A SILICON SEMICONDUCTOR DETECTOR TELESCOPE, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section A, Accelerators, spectrometers, detectors and associated equipment, 348(1), 1994, pp. 192-197
A method for discriminating cosmic ions that can be applied at low ene
rgies using DELTAE-E is presented. The method is tested with a simple
detector telescope, consisting of surface barrier silicon detectors. T
he results obtained irradiating the detector with S-32 ions at 795 MeV
are presented and then compared with those obtained by applying the S
eamster et al. algorithm.
