Abstract
A new method for the measurement of energy and angular distributions of charged particles from neutron induced nuclear reactions is described. A small cylindrical multiwire proportional chamber in connection with a central CsI(T1) scintillator allows simultaneously the measurement of the energy of charged particles at all reaction angles, the particle identification via the d E/d X- E detector system and via pulse shape discrimination, and the measurement of the background, thus reducing accelerator and measuring time. Data acquisition is made on-line via CAMAC to a PDP-11 computer. The design of the system and its performance under realistic measuring conditions are described in detail.
