Abstract

A new detector system was proposed for the measurement of the double differential cross section (DDX) data on proton-actinide reactions in the 600-MeV region. The detector system is the combination of pulse height measurement and TOF measurement. In the pulse height measurement, conventional ΔE-E method was used with a plastic scintillator and an inorganic crystal. The TOF measurement was done by using two plastic scintillators. The result of the preliminary experiment carried out using 230 MeV/u helium beam is reported.
