Abstract
A multilayer semiconductor spectrometer for low-energy pions is descri bed. Algorithms for energy reconstruction, identification of the pion sign, and muon rejection are discussed, The results of test experiment s on the spectrometer model are presented. The main parameters of the spectrometer are: range of measured energies 3-25 MeV, energy resoluti on DELTAE = 0.6 MeV, and rejection coefficients K(pi+/pi-) congruent-t o 12 and K(pi-/pi+) congruent-to 10(3).
