Description

The considerations for the design of a detector assembly for detecting pions and protons resulting from the decay of Δ+ in the reaction 6Li(p,Δ++)6He at 400-500 MeV are discussed. The details of a computer program to calculate efficiencies for different hodoscope geometries and numerical results for some specific cases are given. A method for reconstructing the full kinematics of a reaction event from the position information of particle hits in the hodoscope is presented. (author)
