Characterization of chromium GEM foils for MAGIX — •Maximilian Littich for the MAGIX collaboration — Institut für Kernphysik, Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz, Deutschland

The MAGIX experiment will be located at the MESA accelerator which is currently being built at the Institut für Kernphysik in Mainz. It will utilize the powerful electron beam with energies of up to 105 MeV and beam currents of up to 1 mA to perform high precision experiments. To identify scattered particles the MAGIX spectrometers will use GEM detectors as their focal plane detectors.
To build a GEM detector with a minimal material budget we characterized ultra-thin chromium GEM foils. This talk will give an overview over the characterization and performance measurements.
