Position Sensitive Silicon Detectors in the R3B-Setup — •Ina Syndikus, Stefanos Paschalis, and Marina Petri for the R3B collaboration — Institut für Kernphysik, Technische Universität Darmstadt
At the R3B setup at the GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung GmbH in Darmstadt kinematically complete measurements of reactions with relativistic radioactive beams are feasible. The kinematically complete measurements require a variety of detection systems, which combined can deliver information on all particles involved in the reaction. An essential part of these measurements is the unambiguous event by event identification and tracking of the incoming beam particles and the outgoing, heavy reaction products. Among others, several position sensitive silicon detectors are used to measure the charge of the particles and the fragments before and after the target as well as their position. We present the results for the position and energy resolution of these detectors from alpha-particle measurement as well as in-beam experiments measured with digital electronics.
