description

In-beam gamma-ray and electron spectroscopy have been widely used as tools to study the broad variety of phenomena in nuclear structure. The SPEDE spectrometer is a new device to be used in conjunction with the MINIBALL germanium detector array to enable the detection of internal conversion electrons in coincidence with gamma rays from de-exciting nuclei in radioactive ion beam experiments at the upcoming HIE-ISOLDE facility at CERN, Switzerland. Geant4 simulations were carried out in order to optimise the design and segmentation of the silicon detector to achieve good energy resolution and performance. ispartof: pages:1-4 ispartof: EPJ Web ofConferences vol:63 pages:1-4 ispartof: Heavy Ion Accelerator Symposium location:AUSTRALIA, Canberra date:8 Apr - 12 Apr 2013 status: published
