The EUROBALL Cluster detector is composed of seven encapsulated Ge detectors
in a common cryostat with a total volume of 2000 ccm of HP Germanium. The
development and the performance of the Cluster detector is summarized.
Up to six Cluster detectors were used in pre-EUROBALL experiments at the
S-DALINAC Darmstadt, at the tandem-postaccelerator facility of the MPI-K
Heidelberg and the UNILAC at GSI. Examples of these experiments - the excitation
of dipole modes with (gamma, gamma')-reactions and the first coincidence
spectroscopy of the N=Z nucleus 68Se with a CLUSTER Cube - are
discussed. The development of segmented encapsulated Ge detectors for a
MINIBALL at the radioactive beam facility REX-ISOLDE has been launched.
The status of the project is presented.
