Active target TPC for study of photonuclear reactions at astrophysical energies
A setup designed to study photonuclear reactions at astrophysical energies -
an active target Time Projection Chamber was developed and constructed at the
Faculty of Physics, University of Warsaw. The device was successfully employed
in two experiments at the Institute of Nuclear Physics Polish Academy of
Sciences in Cracow, in which {\gamma}- and neutron-induced reactions with CO2
gas target were measured. The reaction products were detected and their momenta
reconstructed. Preliminary results are shown.Comment: Presented at Zakopane Conference on Nuclear Physics 202
