Description
We propose to develop a new signal basis for AGATA array via Coulomb excitation of $^{28}$Si on a thin $^{197}$Au target using the AGATA + PRISMA setup at LNL. The new signal basis will be obtained in an experimental way using the newly developed self-calibration technique from a long-time $\gamma$-source calibration data. The performance of the new self-calibration basis will be studied from the photo-peak efficiency and energy resolution of the Doppler-corrected $\gamma$-energy spectra from this measurement. The $\gamma$-particle coincidence yields is estimated by the GOSIA code. Sufficient statistics to study the signal basis performance can be achieved in 1 day beam time. This development will benefit general AGATA experiments in future at LNL and other facilities.
