AbstraktAbstract
For studies of astrophysical interest and nuclear reactions with radioactive nuclei, charged particle products emitted from nuclear reactions such as 7Li + 9Be are routinely produced, separated and focused onto a focal spot by ion focusing separators such as a superconducting solenoid. The separation and focusing of desired ion groups onto the focal plane is however not complete, being also accompanied by unwanted ion groups. The mass- and energy-resolving but also the spatial focusing power of these separators are also limited and often spread out. In order to evaluate and determine and minimize these effects we decided to analyze the spectral and spatial distributions of ion reaction products at a superconducting solenoid. For this purpose we use the position-sensitive quantumcounting pixel detector Timepix which provides energy or time sensitivity per pixel. This device resolves different ion groups and measures the spectral and spatial spread distributions
