Bragg Curve Spectrometry
Idea suggested in 1982 by Gruhn et. al.
“Conceptually BCS involves using the maximum data available from the Bragg curve of the stopping
heavy ion for purposes of identifying the particle and measuring its energy.”
Nuclear Instruments and Methods 196 (1982) 33-40

The Munich Bragg Detector Situated at the end of the beam at
Miniball, REX-ISOLDE. An on axis Bragg detector for small
sampling of the beam. Designed and built at Technische
Universität München.
Main drawbacks:
1. On axis so Miniball target must be removed in order to obtain data.
2. Due to detector response time only takes small sample of the beam.
![Page 14: The York Bragg Detector – Design and Simulation James Butterworth Seminar at York 31/03/2010.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649d785503460f94a5a7fc/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The York Bragg Detector Off axis. Allows concurrent monitoring of
the beam. Large acceptance. Forms an annulus around the
beamline. Highly sensitive and selective. Hope to achieve a Z resolution
of 1/40.

SRIM vs TRIM
TRIM Outputs – Text files containing data about the projectile, target layers, electromagnetic and nuclear energy loss, straggling etc.
SRIM Outputs – Single table containing data about energy loss, penetration depth and straggling.
Advantages of TRIM... Simulates individual events Allows multiple target layers Number of ions and random seed can be selected Deals with ionisation by ions and recoils
![Page 28: The York Bragg Detector – Design and Simulation James Butterworth Seminar at York 31/03/2010.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649d785503460f94a5a7fc/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Introduction to Garfield Simulation program. Simulates
gaseous ionisation chambers. Uses the best available
approximations and techniques. Higher detail than Geant 4.
Garfield needs a description of the chamber and the gas as inputs.
Garfield then simulates the electron drift in the chamber, and the current induced on the chamber wires.
![Page 29: The York Bragg Detector – Design and Simulation James Butterworth Seminar at York 31/03/2010.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649d785503460f94a5a7fc/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Garfield Inputs
Cell section Gas section Field section Drift section Signal section
The chamber is described in this section. Components are entered a 2D
planes or wires, infinite in the third dimension.
Complex structures can be simulated using arrays of wires.
The dimensions of each component and voltages on them are specified here.
The gas properties of the chamber are set here including... Pressure. Temperature. Ion mobility. Work function. Fano factor. SRIM file to be read in.
The field drift and signal sections contain various commands for calculating and plotting the field, drift lines and induced current.

The Garfield/SRIM Interface
Garfield can interface with the SRIM quick range tables.
It makes use of the values for... Electromagnetic energy loss. Nuclear energy loss. Distance traversed by ions. Longitudinal straggling. Lateral straggling.For ions at a range of energies.Density of the gas is also read in. This replaces any value for density already read into Garfield.
The Garfield SRIM interface makes use of the fact...

Perform Numerical Differentiation• U
ses a lagrangian method to differentiate energy vs position to give the total ionisation dE/dx.
Calculate the splitting between EM and nuclear energy losses• U
se the differentiated values for total dE/dx and the values of EM dE/dx.
Generate electron clusters along the track• G
