The electrostatic Cryogenic Storage Ring (CSR), currently under construction at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg, will enable long time storage of slow molecular ions with energies up to 300 keV and low blackbody radiation corresponding to the ∼10 K temperature of the storage ring enclosure. Under these conditions polyatomic ions up to high masses can be prepared in or near the rovibrational ground state. Their fragmentation can be studied by fast-beam coincidence fragment momentum imaging.
For direct beam diagnostics as well as for imaging of neutral fragments from dissociative recombination reactions MCP-based detector systems with phosphor screens are being developed. The requirements of the CSR regarding the huge temperature range from operation at ∼10 K to bakeout at ∼520 K as well as an extremly high vacuum of better then 10−13 mbar place strong demands on the design. The technical details for the installation of these cryogenic detection systems in the CSR will be presented.
