Abstract

A new, fast, zero-time detector with an active area of 20 cm 2 has been constructed. Secondary electrons from a thin self-supporting foil are accelerated onto a scintillator. The intrinsic time resolution (fwhm) was 0.85 ns for 5.5 MeV σ-particles and 0.42 ns for 17 MeV 16O-ions, at an efficiency of 97.5% and 99.6%, respectively.
