Abstract
A 4π array of plastic scintillator has been constructed and used in conjunction with high resolution solid state detectors. The array is employed principally to discriminate multinucleon transfer reactions from three-body (or more) final states. It should be useful for a broad class of experiments in which a global charged particle anticoincidence is required.
