A supersonic gas jet target built for studying heavy-ion induced nuclear reactions with high energy resolution is described. The device is installed as part of a magnetic spectrograph and has produced image sizes in the focal plane as small as 0.4 mm using 100 MeV /sup 16/O beams collimated to an area of about 1 mm/sup 2/. Target densities of 30 ..mu..g/cm/sup 2/ (/sup 40/Ar) and 15 ..mu..g/cm/sup 2/ (/sup 14/N) have easily been obtained. The target has already been used for two nuclear reaction experiments. 9 references, 8 figures.
