AMBRE Measurement Principle

The AMBRE spectrometer of charged particles is constituted of a "top-hat" electrostatic analyser for the energy discrimination, multi-channel plates for the multiplication of charges, and electronics board of command and counting.

The "top-hat" analyzer is composed of 2 polarized half-spheres (high voltage proportional to the energy) topped with a hat, with a collimator and a grid.
