Abstract

The construction of a new array to study femtoscopy and multiparticle correlations in heavy-ion collisions at intermediate energies (E = 20–1000 AMeV) has been started at the INFN of Catania (Sezione and LNS). The project, named FARCOS (Femtoscope ARray for COrrelations and Spectroscopy) is aimed at the development of a detection system with high pixelation capabilities in order to perform high-precision measurements of two- and multi-particle correlations. The detector will address topics related to the study of reaction dynamics and of the equation of state of asymmetric nuclear matter as well as spectroscopy with both stable and exotic beams. We present first detection simulations for FARCOS telescopes and first experimental results related with the characterization of CsI(Tl) crystals, an important detection stage of each telescope.
