For the characterisation of the ion beam delivered by
the new High Current LINAC at GSI, the time structure
of bunches and the knowledge concerning their intensity
distribution in longitudinal phase space is of great
importance. At least 100ps time resolution and the
capability of measuring long tails in the distribution were
design parameters. Taking advantage of Rutherford-scattering
to reduce the count rate, a direct time of flight
measurement technique using diamond detectors can be
applied. First results are reported. Plans for determine the
energy of individual ions by detecting secondary
electrons emitted from a thin C foil using 1m drift are
discussed.
