In the frame of the proof-of-principle experiment on photoionization of the stored C⁺ ions by XUV laser pulses, a specially tailored detector setup has been developed for counting product ions. These hit the YAP:Ce scintillator plate producing light pulses which are registered by an array of silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) placed on a custom-made interface board in a pocket tube outside of the vacuum. The detector can reliably operate in strong magnetic field and thus can be put directly inside the chamber of a dipole magnet. The developed array of mechanical actuators enables the detector’s fine positioning to match the given product-ion trajectory, as well as the swift periodical retraction out of the product-ion trajectory area to avoid its unnecessary irradiation and possible primary-ion losses during the ion-beam preparation procedure. This detector enables a variety of photoionization experiments with stored highly-charged ions.
