Abstract

The HYpernuclei-Decay at R

^{3}

B Apparatus (HYDRA) tracker is a novel time projection chamber combined with a plastic scintillator wall for timing and trigger purposes at the Reactions with Relativistic Radioactive Beams (R

^{3}

B) facility of GSI-FAIR. This detector is a low radiation length tracker dedicated to measuring pions from the weak decay of light hypernuclei produced from ion-ion collisions at few GeV/nucleon in the magnetic field of the large-acceptance dipole magnet GLAD at R

^{3}

B. In this paper, we describe the design of the detector and provide the results of its first characterizations.

用于R3B超核研究的HYDRA介子跟踪器

R3B超核衰变装置（HYDRA）跟踪器是一种新型的时间投影室，结合了塑料闪烁体壁，用于计时和触发GSI-FAIR相对论放射性束反应（R3B）设施。该探测器是一种低辐射长度跟踪器，专门用于测量在R3B大接受偶极磁体GLAD的磁场中，以很少GeV/核子的离子-离子碰撞产生的轻超核弱衰变产生的介子。在本文中，我们描述了探测器的设计，并提供了它的第一次表征的结果。

期刊介绍： Section A of Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research publishes papers on design, manufacturing and performance of scientific instruments with an emphasis on large scale facilities. This includes the development of particle accelerators, ion sources, beam transport systems and target arrangements as well as the use of secondary phenomena such as synchrotron radiation and free electron lasers. It also includes all types of instrumentation for the detection and spectrometry of radiations from high energy processes and nuclear decays, as well as instrumentation for experiments at nuclear reactors. Specialized electronics for nuclear and other types of spectrometry as well as computerization of measurements and control systems in this area also find their place in the A section. Theoretical as well as experimental papers are accepted.
