Description
A low threshold charged particle three-stage detector has been designed, built and successfully tested. A truncated pyramidal geometry has been chosen to use the device as an element in a large solid angle array for heavy ion nuclear experiments. Angular resolution of 0.4 at 35 cm from the target, energy resolution of about 1% for the elastically scattered ions and Z resolving power of 63 for Z=17 have been achieved in the 35Cl+64Ni reaction at 280 MeV incident energy.
