Summary

Lexan polycarbonate track detectors have been used to determine the charge and energy spectra of nuclear fragments withZ ≥ 6 and with kinetic energies as low as ⋍1.0 MeV/nucleon emitted from a thin gold target bombarded with 24 GeV/c protons.

Riassunto

Si sono usati rivelatori di tracce a policarbonato di Lexan per determinare la carica e gli spettri d’energia dei frammenti nucleari conZ ≥ 6 e con energie cinetiche basse sino a ⋍1.0 MeV/nucleone emessi da un bersaglio sottile d’oro bombardato con protoni di 24 GeV/c.

Реэюме

Лексановые поликарбонатные трековые детекторы испольэуются для определения эарядового и знергетического спектров ядерных фрагментовZ≥6и с кинетическими знергиями ниже ⋍ 1.0 МзВ на нуклон. Ядерные фрагменты испу-скаются иэ тонкой эолотой мищени при бомбардировке их протонами с импульсом 24 ГзВ/с.
