A multi-anode transverse field gas ionization chamber

Description

A transverse field gas ionization chamber for particle identification at the Radioactive Ion Beam Line in Lanzhou (RIBLL) is described. It consists of cathode, Frisch grid and 4 anodes (20, 40, 80, 136 mm). The MAIC was measured at 104 Pa of operating gas P10(10% CH4 + 90% Ar). By setting the voltage of anode at 100 V, the plateau of the MAIC is 700 V varying from -300V to -1000V. With voltage of anode at +225 V and the voltage of cathode at -700V, the energy resolution of MAIC is 41.1 keV for 1.30 MeV 244Cm α and relative energy resolution (ΔE/E) is 3.16% at the fourth anode
