Heavy Ion Fragmentation at Intermediate Energy.

Abstract

The N.R.L. Heavy Ion Experiment, which was run at the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory Bevatron Accelerator, measured the single-particle inclusive productions cross sections and momentum distributions for carbon ions at 250 Me V/u incident on CU, C, CH2 (and hydrogen) targets. The discussion of this experiment will include: (1) the detector design, (2) the beam monitoring system and fast logic, (3) the running system software, and (4) the analysis and preliminary results. The mass resolution achieved was Delta approx 0.15 and the spatial resolution with the drift chamber was approx 0.5mm. A separate report will discuss the final results and their implications.
