Abstrakt: The article describes a new detector, a volume filled with hexane at low pressure (3 Torr), containing multi-wire proportional chambers and a silicon semiconductor detector. Using this setup, alpha particles emitted during the decay of the radioactive isotope 226Ra were detected. The device has an energy resolution of ≤ 5% and allows measuring the ionization energy losses of alpha particles as well. Thus, the LPMWPC and SSD-based experimental setup is a good tool for studying both binary and ternary fission of heavy nuclei, in which the third fragment is a high-energy alpha particle.
