Abstract :
The Gamma-Ray Energy Tracking In-beam Nuclear Array (GRETINA) is a new generation high-resolution γ - ray spectrometer consisting of electrically segmented high-purity germanium crystals. GRETINA is capable of reconstructing the energy and position of each γ - ray interaction point inside the crystal with high resolution. This enables γ - ray energy tracking which in turn provides an array with large photopeak efficiency, high resolution and good peak-to-total ratio. GRETINA is used for nuclear structure studies with demanding γ - ray detection requirements and it is suitable for experiments with radioactive-ion beams with high recoil velocities. The GRETINA array has a 1 π solid angle coverage and constitutes the first stage towards the full 4 π array GRETA. We present in this paper the main parts and the performance of the GRETINA system.
