The FOOT experiment is a fixed target experiment aiming for high precision (better than 5%) measurement of fragmentation cross section for hadron-therapy and space radioprotection purposes. Both target and projectile fragmentation are studied by using mainly proton, Carbon and Oxygen ion beams in both direct and inverse kinematic regime, alternatively. A good track reconstruction and momentum measurement is of fundamental importance for precise fragment identification and cross section measurement.

Both target and projectile fragmentation are studied by using mainly proton, Carbon and Oxygen ion beams in both direct and inverse kinematic regime, alternatively. A good track reconstruction and momentum measurement is of fundamental importance for precise fragment identification and cross section measurement.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
