Abstract
In order to have an independent, repeatable, consistent, and flexible method to assess and compare heavy ion beams produced by different heavy ion irradiation facilities, a system has been developed in ESA laboratories to acquire and analyze the energy spectra of heavy ion beams. This system based on silicon detector is composed of a degrader system and detector to allow the acquisition of several measurement points. By coupling this measurement with simulation, it would be theoretically possible to identify an ion species.
