The detector system described to this article was designed to alleviate some of these difficulties . It covers only part of the solid angle over which it provides high granularity for light particles and modest granularity for heavy fragment detection. It is organized in layers such that coverage of a large range of energies and final products is possible over the subtended angular range. The purpose of such a detector is to provide good * ORNL is operated by Martin Marietta Energy Systems Inc. Under Contract No DE-AC05-84OR21400 with the U.S. Department of Energy .

N2 - A detector system with a large acceptance, high granularity and a logarithmic response, has been built. It is well suited to detect simultaneously, heavy and light fragments from nucleus-nucleus collisions at energies higher than 10 MeV/nucleon. The angular range spanned by this detector system is ± 20° in-plane and ± 16° out-of-plane with the exclusion of a 2.5° cone around the beam axis. Coverage with a large dynamic range is provided with four large gas filled ionization chambers and behind them a 192-element hodoscope made of individual fast + slow plastic scintillation telescopes in a "phoswich" arrangement.
