Abstract
The design and testing of a novel detector for heavy-ion physics in th e intermediate-energy regime is described. This detector consists of a large drift chamber with microstrip read-out in combination with thic k plastic scintillators. With this system particle identification and energy determination with high spatial resolution and multiple hit cap acity is achieved.
