The Faraday cup array technique, a direct measurement of the absolute current distribution, has been developed both in one dimension[1] and two dimensions[2], providing a great advantage in terms of convenience. In this technique, a many-channel picoammeter (up to 128 channels) is necessary.展开更多

However, it is difficult to determine the absolute cross section of a reaction where luminosity cannot be simply established through macroscopic measurements. Here we present an experimental determination of the effective target thickness from the beam energy losses at the internal target in HIRFL-CSRe. The measurements here are expected to provide the accurate target thickness and luminosity for the absolute cross-section study on future internal target experiments, and also provide some reference values for the study of beam loss mechanism of the heavy ion at HIRFL-CSRe.展开更多

Radiative de-excitation of the doubleK-shell vacancy states of atoms leads to the emission of so called K X-ray hyper-satellites (Kh,Kh . . . )[1], whichgives us the insight into the decay modes of multiply ionized ions as well as the ionization processes during ion-atomcollisions. Contrary to the long-winded and difficult experiments with heavy target due to the low detection efficiencyof K X-ray hyper-satellites with crystal spectrometers[2??4], the bulk of knowledge concerning double K-shellionization in ion-atom collisions has been obtained for light target.展开更多

Stolterfoht et al[1]. Since then considerable work[2] has been done to investigate slow highly charged ions(HCIs) interacting with inner surfaces of various insulating capillaries. It has been shown that the guiding effect isprevalent in the transmission of slow HCIs.Similar guiding phenomena were also observed for electrons transmitted through capillaries (see, e.g., Ref. [3-5]).However, the experiments showed that transmission efficiency of electrons was significantly lower than that of HCIs.Moreover, it revealed that portion of the transmitted electrons suffered significant energy-loss.展开更多
