Scientific paper

We describe the Hybrid-4pi (HyBall) compact array of charged-particle detectors being used at ORNL with Radioactive Ion Beams (RIB) for studies in Nuclear Structure and Nuclear Reactions. It consists of two parts: a) up to 95-element CsI (T1)-crystals coupled to large area photodiodes and b) a forward array of double sided silicon strip detectors. The versatile array allows its main components to be used separately and to be reconfigured. The HyBall array is housed in an aluminum target chamber with a forward funnel that accommodates the microstrip-Si-detectors. When used with the CLARION array of clover Ge detectors, the geometry of this chamber minimizes the exposure of the Ge- and CsI-detectors to the gamma-rays and positrons resulting from the decay of the scattered radioactive ions. We will show examples of the HyBall performance from recent RIB experiments. *Supported by US-DOE under the contract DE-AC05-00AOR22725.
