Abstract: A transverse field gas ionization chamber as ΔE detector at the Radioactive Ion Beam Line in Lanzhou (RIBLL) is described. A high detection efficiency and long plateau are achieved with the mixed gas Ar(80%)+CO2(20%). The energy resolution is 3.25% for 4.94MeV α particle. This ionization chamber has been tested in the experiment with 50MeV/u 58Ni bombarding Ta at RIBLL. All the fragments can be identified clearly by the ionization chamber.
