In this contribution, the results achieved using the pixelation method for the FARCOS array will be presented. The α coincidence data in events produced in the reaction16O +12C will be analysed. A good energy resolution has been obtained in the reconstruction of the excitation energy of the populated resonances. The correction of inter-strip effects and the accurate reconstruction of the detection angles, also in events with 3 or more touched strips, improves the detection efficiency.

Abstract

In this contribution, the results achieved using the pixelation method for the FARCOS array will be presented. The α coincidence data in events produced in the reaction16O +12C will be analysed. A good energy resolution has been obtained in the reconstruction of the excitation energy of the populated resonances. The correction of inter-strip effects and the accurate reconstruction of the detection angles, also in events with 3 or more touched strips, improves the detection efficiency.
