Experimental evaluation demonstrates tracking and identification of relativistic ions from hydrogen to uranium, indicating robust capabilities for nuclear physics research.
We present the design, developments, and test results of the new scintillating fiber based tracking detectors which are part of the R ³ 3 B experimental setup at GSI and FAIR, Darmstadt, Germany. Those tracking detectors are capable to track heavy ions of all charges at relativistic energies. Together with an elaborate particle-tracking system, the full identification of relativistic ions from hydrogen up to uranium in mass and nuclear charge is possible.
