Abstract

The Darmstadt High-Intensity Photon Setup (DHIPS) for photon-scattering and photodissociation experiments at the superconducting electron linear accelerator S–DALINAC has been improved. We report on its present performance. The developments include the installation of a segmented radiator for an online evaluation of the beam energy and the construction of a second photon-scattering setup with a Clover detector to deduce parity assignments. The enhancement of the existing photon-scattering setup with an additional 100% HPGe detector and some minor changes are described as well as the installation of two setups for photon-induced activation. In addition, we present a comparison of experimental data to Monte Carlo simulations using the codes Geant 3.21 and GEANT4.
