Physics requirements
Study for nuclear property of unstable nuclei
→ Use of inverse kinematics is needed.
Measurement of forward scattering
→ Measuring the recoil light nuclei can lead to precise measurement.
→ But the energy of the recoil nuclei for forward scattering is very
small.
→ Gaseous target (or thin foil) is needed.
Gas
Target : a → He gas
Target : d → d gas (or Cd4)
To separate the objective reaction from other reaction,
• Angler resolution : 7.45mrad(RMS)
• Position resolution of vertex point : 1mm(RMS)
• Energy resolution : 10%(RMS)
is needed for .

Basic structure
Mask the beam track area
•TPC can be operate in high rate beam condition.
(Only the rate of recoil nuclei has to be taken into account.)
Use of GEM
Electron multiplication can be done at high rate.
Pad shape(rectangular triangle)
•To lessen the number of pads, rectangular triangle is used for the
pad shape.
•Position is derived by the charge ratio of the neighboring two pads.

Distortion of electric field by ions
If the beam rate is very high, beam comes before the ions
created by previous beam go away.
→ Ions (electrons) created by beam are piled up, and distorts the
electric field.
After a few seconds, charge distribution will be stationary.
← This Charge distribution is simulated by Monte-Carlo
simulation.
Distortion of the electric field is simulated by Garfield,
← Put stationary charge distribution into Garfield’s
configuration, substitute wire for electric charge.
and simulation of the position gap during electron drift has done.
