Popis: Two delay-line readout drift chambers with an active area of 90 cm by 7 cm are now in use as focal plane detectors at the high resolution spectrometer Big Karl. The position resolution is better than 0.2 mm fwhm with detector efficiencies exceeding 99.5% for 45 MeV deuterons. Light ions such as protons, deuterons, alphas and others up to 6He have been measured at energies between 15 and 45 Mev per nucleon. The new detector offers a significantly higher focal plane acceptance with improved background suppression and correction capabilities.
