DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Retief Neveling (iThemba LABS)\nA new position sensi
 tive detector system for the focal plane of the K600 magnetic spectrometer
  is currently being developed. The existing focal plane detectors (FPDs) w
 ere designed to detect Z≤2 ions with kinetic energies 30 MeV/u or higher
 . A new low-pressure gas-filled tracker combined with a stopping scintilla
 tor detector is required to allow for the efficient detection of heavier p
 articles (Z>2) over a range of kinetic energies\, as well as light particl
 es (Z≤2) at lower kinetic energies (<30 MeV/u).  The different physics c
 ases currently envisaged that require the low- pressure gas-filled detecto
 r will be reviewed\, and an overview of the design of the new FPD will be 
 presented.\n\nhttps://indico.tlabs.ac.za/event/82/contributions/1334/
