AbstraktAbstract

The silicon based pixel detector Timepix is a multi-parameter detector which gives simultaneously information about position, energy and arrival time of a particle hitting the detector. Applying the ΔE-E method with these detectors makes it possible to determine types of detected particles, separating them by charge. Using a thin silicon detector with thickness of 12 μm combined with a Timepix (300 μm), a ΔE-E telescope has been constructed. The telescope provides information about position, energy, time and type of registered particles. The emission probabilities and the energy distributions of ternary particles (He, Li, Be) from 252Cf spontaneous fission source were determined using this telescope. Besides the ternary particles, a few events were collected, which were attributed to the “pseudo” quaternary fission.
