AbstraktAbstract

With the goal to study angular correlations of rare fission decay, charged-particle spatial- and time-correlated measurements of fission fragments are being investigated with a modular multi-parameter coincidence system based on several pixel detectors Timepix. In addition to high granularity, wide dynamic range and per pixel threshold, Timepix provides energy and time sensitivity capability per pixel. The detector is operated with the integrated USB 2.0-based readout interface FITPix and the data acquisition software tool Pixelman. A number of coincidence setups and techniques were investigated. Triggered measurements are performed with an integrated spectrometric module with embedded analogue signal chain electronics. Demonstration of the technique is presented with a spontaneous fission source.
