Abstract:The potential of the high resolution nuclear track detector (NTD) CR-39 is examined carefully for the measurement of relativistic nuclear projectile fragmentation cross sections and studies of related processes using the experience of many years of such measurements. The charge resolution and the charge resolving power of CR-39 detectors for the measurements of 158 A GeV 207 Pb projectiles and their fragments are presented. Exposures of target-detector stacks, the chemical etching procedure and the nuclear tra… Show more
