abstract
2017 An active target detector array, ANASEN, has been developed for nuclear reaction studies with rare isotope beams at low energies. It aims at measurements of the excitation functions for proton and - particle elastic and inelastic scattering and direct measurements of (, p) reactions with exotic nuclei in inverse kinematics. ANASEN is composed of three types of charged particle detectors. The length of the active area is 340 mm and the total covered area is 1300 cm2 (almost 3 steradian solid angle coverage) providing high efficiency for experiments with low intensity radioactive beams. A mix of 78 conventional electronics channels (for Proportional Counter and CsI-detectors) and 480 dedicated high-density ASICs electronics channels for the silicon detector are used for readout.
