An apparatus, used to search for nucleon isobars, x , in π 4 He → π t x or π 4 He → π 3 He x reactions, is described. The nuclear fragment and the scattered fast pion were measured in a recoil spectrometer and a fast-particle spectrometer, respectively. The recoil spectrometer has multiwire proportional chambers (MWPC) for the measurement of direction and semiconductor detectors and scintillation counters for the measurement of energy. The identification of the recoil is accomplished by means of the E , ΔE method. The target is gaseous to allow the measurement of low-energy recoils and it can hold pressures up to 150 atm. The spectrometer for the scattered pion consists of a magnet and MWPC's.
