2.  LYCCA : Lund-York-Cologne-Calorimeter shall be placed at the end of Super-FRS at FAIR as part of HISPEC campaign.  Based on CATE calorimeter used for RISING campaign, with the addition of time-of flight (TOF) measurements for better fragment identification.  Simulations by Mike Taylor show that TOF detectors require resolution of at least 100ps, ideally less than 50ps. 50 Fe 51 Fe 52 Fe 53 Fe Super-FRS LYCCA Target Detectors Wall Detectors

3.  Wafers of polycrystalline diamond purchased from Diamond Detectors Ltd measuring 20 x 20 mm, and 300µm thick.  Contacts fabricated at University of Surrey. Front contacts: divided into four strips for lower capacitance Back contacts: full pad for grounding purposes PCB: specially deigned for high frequency signals and impedance matched

4.  Detectors positioned in transmission geometry so that 500MeV and 800MeV of energy was deposited into front and back detectors respectively. High Frequency Cables 15mm 40 MeV/u Ar 40 Leading Edge Discriminator found to produce best results

5. FWHM = 104 ± FWHM = 134ps 95ps resolution per detector
