R. Alfaromolina et al., AN INEXPENSIVE PSD FOR HEAVY-ION ELASTIC-SCATTERING MEASUREMENTS, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section A, Accelerators, spectrometers, detectors and associated equipment, 392(1-3), 1997, pp. 447-449
A position-sensitive particle-identification detection system for heav
y-ion elastic scattering measurements is described. It consists of a s
mall one-dimensional multiwire chamber (MWC) and two multi-strip solid
state detectors used in a MWC-Delta E-E telescope array. As a test, t
he system was used to detect projectile residues in the bombardment of
Mg-24 and Au-197 targets with 13 MeV/amu C-12 ions.
