Abstract

The first phase of the AGATA project, namely the AGATA Demonstrator Array, consists of a subset of 5 triple clusters of the final array and will be used to demonstrate the feasibility of the γ-ray tracking. The performance of the instrument has been estimated up to now only through Monte Carlo simulations and indirect measurements. The first installation is presently ongoing ay the Laboratori Nazionali di Legnaro, Italy, where it has replaced the CLARA array at the target position of the PRISMA magnetic spectrometer. In the present contribution, the details of the installation will be reviewed and preliminary results from the first in-beam commissioning test will be given.
