Abstract
A simple 4pi charged-particle sensitive detector useful for gamma-ray spectroscopy is described. The detector is a plastic scintillator tube , which surrounds the target. The tube is segmented into four opticall y isolated cylindrical arcs. The tube is an efficient charged particle hit detector with a very small photon interaction probability.
