Abstract
A Transmission Ion Chamber (TIC) was constructed for use at the focal plane of the Fragment Mass Analyzer (FMA). The motivation for the construction of the TIC was to allow energy loss information to be added to the focal plane identification data. Three experiments immediately benefited form this information. First, an astrophysics experiment studying 69Br via the β decay of 69Kr would benefit greatly by adding a TIC to the existing implantation station. Second the study of extreme sub-barrier heavy-ion fusion evaporation reaction could be made more sensitive. Third, a study was performed using a PPAC-TIC-DSSD configuration to separate 101Sn from the other evaporation products of highly excited 108Te.
