Abstract

A spectrometer to measure the angular distribution of conversion electrons in charged particle induced reactions is described. The spectrometer consists of a magnetic filter built with small permanent magnets and s Si(Li) detector. The parameters of the instrument are discussed and attenuation factors due to the finite solid angles are evaluated. Spectra of conversion electrons following the reaction 169Tm(d, xn) and 182Os(d, xn) at an incident deuteron energy of Ed=52 MeV taken at different angles are shown. Angular distribution coefficients are calculated and the evaluation of the data in the framework of the formalism developed in part I is demonstrated.
