A high-resolution detection system for short-lived gaseous activities Academic Article

abstract

• A fast gas-sweeping system has been developed which enables activities to be transported up to 5 m from the target position in 50-100 ms. It has been used along with a cooled semiconductor-counter telescope to obtain delayed-proton spectra in which the energy resolution was limited to 45 keV by kinematic effects. The remote counting location also permits use of a Ge(Li) detector without fear of radiation damage. Several different high-yield target configurations are described, including a sulfur target that is useful for prolonged high-intensity bombardments. 1971.
