Development of a tracking system of exotic nuclear beams for FAIR
Description
New accelerators like SPIRAL2 (GANIL, France) or FAIR (GSI, Germany) will be
soon constructed, and they will be able to produce radioactive ion beams (RIB) with high
intensities of current (≥106pps). These beams, at low energy, lower than 20 MeV/n, usually have
high emittance, which imposes the use of tracking detectors before the target in order to
reconstruct the trajectory of the ions. The group of Nuclear Physics at CNA (Centro Nacional de
Aceleradores), is in charge of developing a tracking system for the low energy branch of FAIR
(the HISPEC/DESPEC project). A collaboration with CEA-SACLAY was established, with the
aim of developing, building and testing low pressure Secondary electron Detectors (SeD).
Within this proposal we have projected and constructed a new Nuclear Physics Line in the CNA
in order to be able to receive any kind of detector tests and the associated nuclear instruments.
