Imaging with a multiplane multiwire proportional chamber using heavy-ion beams
Abstract
A 16 plane multiwire proportional chamber was developed to accurately map intensity profiles of heavy ion beams at the Bevalac. The imaging capability of the system was tested for reconstruction of 3 dimensional representation of a canine thorax region using heavy ion beams.
