Description
The ELITPC, an active-target TPC to measure cross-sections for nuclear
photo-disintegration reactions, is being developed at the University of
Warsaw in collaboration with ELI-NP/IFIN-HH and the University of
Connecticut. The detector will be installed in the monochromatic and
linearly polarized gamma-ray beam line in the Extreme Light
Infrastructure - Nuclear Physics (ELI-NP) located in Bucharest-Magurele,
Romania.
The ELITPC detector will be equipped with triple-GEM structure for gas
amplification and will work at lower-than-atmospheric pressure. The data
acquisition system will employ 1024 channels of customized GET
electronics (z-CoBo). The physics programme, design and current status
of R&D will be discussed.
