Description
Summary:With the development of an array of highly-segmented germanium detectors, it now becomes possible to perform in-flight γ-ray spectroscopy experiments on intermediate energy beams with unprecedented γ-ray energy resolution. Presented in this report are examples of two techniques in which SeGA, the most highly-segmented operational germanium array for in-flight spectroscopy with fast beams, was used for the detection of γ rays. SeGA used in conjunction with a high-resolution magnetic spectrograph (S800) to detect the reaction residues in coincidence represents a powerful combination for in-beam γ-ray studies.
