Abstract

We have developed a parallel beam suitable for channeling experiments with relativistic heavy ions at HIMAC (Heavy Ion Medical Accelerator in Chiba). To observe channeling phenomena, we used a silicon surface barrier detector (SSD) as a sample crystal and as a detector for the energy loss in itself. Further, we measured the angular spread of the beam transmitted through the SSD by a position sensitive detector (PSD) placed downstream of the SSD. Under <110> axial and (111), (220) and (004) planar channeling conditions, we observed that the energy loss of the channeled ions in the SSD became almost a half and their angular spread was also reduced.
