University of Maryland 1.5 m Diameter A-line Scattering Chamber

The large scattering chamber at iThemba LABS is positioned in the A-line and is used in reaction mechanism studies with both light and heavy ions. Since it is equipped inside with two independently movable arms to which detectors can be attached, this apparatus is extremely useful in measuring angular distributions of charged particles emitted in different nuclear reactions.
