Abstract

A large-angle multiplicity detector (LAMD) system has been developed and used in the BNL experiment E854, relating to antiproton-nucleus interactions. The purpose of the BNL experiment E854 was to search for the predicted formation of hot hadronic matter by energetic antiproton absorption on a range of nuclei. This experiment probed the high-temperature-low-density region of the nuclear matter phase diagram. The LAMD system performed well with an energetic antiproton beam. Charged particle multiplicity distributions from p annihilations were measured. The design and performance of the LAMD system are outlined.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
