Description
The objective of the research and development activities, regarding the upgrade of the focal plane
detector (FPD) and the γ wall detectors of NUMEN, is the construction of new detectors capable to fulfil the
requirements of high event rate, radiation tolerance and data acquisition and transmission bandwidth
deriving from the upgrade of the superconducting cyclotron at Laboratori Nazionali del Sud (LNS). The
design of the front-end and read-out electronics has been conducted in parallel with that of the new
tracker. This new detector together with preliminary results of the test on the prototypes are presented
together with the final design of the FPD.
