Scientific paper

STARS (Silicon Telescope Array for Reaction Studies) is a highly segmented array of particle telescope designed to allow for particle-gamma coincidence measurements in both forward and inverse kinematics at either forward or backward angles using GAMAMSPHERE. Two different arrays of Silicon surface barrier detectors can be employed depending on the configuration of the experiment. The first STARS experiment at GAMMASPHERE took place in April 2002. The ^157Gd(^3He,α)^156Gd reaction at E_α = 45 MeV was used to a) measure level densities and gamma-ray strength functions below the neutron binding energy, and b) to simulate neutron-induced reactions on ^155Gd. Preliminary results from this experiment will be presented. This work was funded by the US Department of Energy under contracts number W-7405-ENG-48 (LLNL), AC03-76SF00098 (LBNL) and the Norwegian Research Council (Oslo).
