Abstract We describe a supersonic gas jet target built for studying reactions induced by heavy ions with high energy resolution. The device produces very localized high density gas jets in a near vacuum environment and is presently installed in the scattering chamber of a magnetic spectrograph at the ORNL HHIRF. With a 100 MeV 16 O beam collimated to a size of approximately 1 mm 2 at the target, image sizes of 0.42 mm have been obtained at the focal plane of the spectrograph with a solid angle of 2.4 msr and target densities of 15–30 μg/cm 2 .

A study of target-like fragments produced by bombarding a /sup 14/N target with 150 MeV /sup 28/Si shows that mass and charge distribution of products from orbiting processes is determined by partitioning of an equilibrated dinuclear system. The experiment was performed with the HHIRF supersonic gas jet target which is also described briefly. 6 references, 10 figures.
