Description
A new timing detector for the time-of-flight method has been invented and successfully tested with heavy-ion beams. The detector consists of a thin foil and an electron multiplier. The best time resolution of 260 ps is obtained for 81Br. The time resolution is also studied in relation to the number of secondary electrons emitted from the foil. (orig.)
