Description
A high-rate particle identification device for high-energy heavy ions has been
developed which utilizes a stacked configuration of grid-less parallel plate gas
ionization chamber with thin anode-cathode gaps. The high-rate capability of
this chamber was realized by adopting bipolar shaping of anode signals and
by making the anode- cathode gaps thin. Z-resolutions of 0.2-0.3 were
obtained for nuclear fragments of 40Ar at 95AMeV with an intensity as high
as 106 cps.
