Total absorption gamma-ray spectroscopy (TAGS) is a powerful tool for measuring complex gamma\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$\gamma$$\end{document} transitions, which has been effectively applied to the study of reactor decay heat. This paper presents the design of a new TAGS detector, the large-scale modular BGO detection array (LAMBDA), tailored for measuring beta\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$\beta$$\end{document}-decay intensity distributions of fission products. The modular design allows the LAMBDA detectors to be assembled in various configurations.
