Production of rare ions from projectiles in flight is a universal technique for most nuclides. Besides fragmentation and fission in-flight also fusion and multi-nucleon transfer can be used for production. A separator is needed before inflight identification of ions and experiments can follow.
With more intense beams the first challenge is the target itself, because heavy ion beams lead to a...
A water-cooled rotating target and a water cooled stational beam dump to withstand beam powers of 82 kW corresponding to the
A spallation-driven, proton-to-neutron converter target has been developed and irradiated at the ISAC-TRIUMF facility, focusing on the production of radioactive ion beams (RIBs) of neutron-rich fission fragments and limiting by design the production of their neutron-deficient isobaric contaminants. So far, fission fragment RIBs have been produced at ISAC-TRIUMF with the ISOL method by...
