A method is suggested for increasing the alpha spectrometer performance load up to 10/sup 4/ pulses/sec. The performance of the heavy-load spectrometer was verified by measuring the alpha spectrum from a Pu/sup 238/ source with intensity of 8 x 10/sup 3/ pulses/sec and the spectrum of generated pulses delivered to the amplifier simultaneously with the alpha -particle pulses. The spectrometer can be utilized for recording low-intensity alpha transitions, in measuring alpha - gamma angular correlations, and as coincidence spectrometer with beta spectrometer. (R.V.J.)
