Last week results: U=- 6.5 kV, 60Co source standard gas mixture: C2F4H2/isobutene/SF6 85/5/10
Where we are? Short term plans Needs | | - the prototype works - the first estimates on the time resolution using 60Co source will be obtained in the next couple of weeks - In beam tests @ GSI-Darmsatdt April-May within FOPI Collaboration - to be discussed - 2 -2.5 GHz scope - one more TDC2228A - two 2249W ADCs - 2-3 CF4000 discriminators - 30 MeV e - ELBE Rossendorf June 2005
