A gas scintillation drift chamber for heavy ion detection
Description
A gas scintillation drift chamber has been exposed to the heavy ion beam at Berkeley, Ca, USA. The drift velocity of an Ar (98%) -N2 (2%) gas mixture as a function of the reduced electric field has been measured. The detector provided a spatial resolution of 500 μm and an energy resolution of 6% for penetrating 518 MeV/nuc. Fe-particles. (orig.)
