Abstract
Kinematics of two-body Coulomb breakup of a prototype 11B nucleus into 4He and 7Li fragments is considered. The factors affecting the accuracy in measuring the breakup parameters are analyzed, and the corrections having an influence on the accuracy in reconstructing the primary parameters of the cluster breakup are estimated. A method for estimating the effect of an unknown contamination in the target and the use of this method for separating true and background events are discussed. The influence of background factors occurring in heavy ion fragmentation reactions is analyzed, and random coincidences due to high background fluxes of parasitic products are estimated. It is proposed to use magnetic analysis of correlated breakup products to reduce the background particle flux and substantially (by several orders of magnitude) improve the accuracy in measuring the cluster energies.
