Experiments using RI beams often require identification of the nuclides. In case of projectile-fragment separator, the identification is performed by measuring time-of-flight, energy loss, and magnetic rigidity. Radiation damage to these detectors has become a problem due to the highly intense heavy ion beams. We have solved this problem by developing a nitrogen gas scintillation counter in...

During the last decade, the multi-reflection time-of-flight mass spectrograph (MRTOF-MS) [1] became a powerful device for precise mass measurements of short-lived isotopes. Exotic ions produced at radioisotope facilities are stored in an electrostatic ion trap with nearly closed-path trajectories at kinetic energies on the order of a few keV, i.e. the ions are reflected back and forth...

The ultimate boundary of existence of chemical elements remains an open question. The heaviest elements known to date, called Superheavy Elements (SHEs, with $Z>103$), owe their existence to the stabilizing effect of nuclear shells, which counteracts the strong Coulomb repulsion that would otherwise cause their immediate fission. The SHIPTRAP mass spectrometer, placed behind the SHIP separator...

While neutrons emitted in intermediate heavy-ion collisions are essential to understand the properties of the strongly interacting baryonic matter, detection of neutrons and simulations of neutron detector performance and efficiencies are difficult. We have developed a SCINFUL-GEANT4 based on the reaction channels and cross-sections in the SCINFUL-QMD simulation code [1] which has a fixed...

nEXO is a proposed 5-tonne experiment that will search for neutrinoless double-beta decay (0νẞẞ) in 5-tonnes of liquid xenon (LXe), isotopically enriched in Xe-136. If observed, 0νẞẞ will violate the assumed symmetry of lepton number conservation in the Standard Model.
Complete position localization of events in the nEXO time projection chamber opens the possibility of extracting from the...

We have developed and commissioned a position-sensitive large-area microchannel plate (MCP) detector with a new digital data acquisition system. The MCP detectors coupled to delay-line anodes are powerful tools for single particle/photon counting, by providing information on position and impact time of each particle/photon [1]. Therefore, MCP detectors are widely utilized in experimental...

RIBF can provide very high-energy and high-intensity RI beams. However, the beam intensity is now limited due to the radiation damages and pile-up events of the particle identification (PID) detectors. Therefore, we are now developing a gaseous Xe scintillator, which is expected to have a better radiation hardness than the existing ones like plastic scintillators, ion chambers, and PPACs. It...

Neutron-induced reactions on actinides are used to study the fission process and to populate neutron-rich isotopes for nuclear spectroscopy. Such studies often benefit from direct measurement of the emission time, mass and/or kinetic energy of fission fragments, thus requiring efficient detectors with good time- and energy resolution. In the case of in-beam operation of the fission fragment...

The 14O(α,p)17F is nominated to be an important reaction that strongly affects the light curves of the Type Ⅰ X-ray burst model [1]. In addition, the reaction rate is known to determine the break-out path from the hot CNO cycle to the rp-process at sufficiently high temperatures (T9 > 0.5) [2]. While the reaction rate plays an important role, its large uncertainty due to lack of experimental...

The region below doubly magic 208Pb in the nuclear chart is important to understand nuclear interactions, nuclear shell evolution, and nuclear-astrophysical r-process. However, this region remains “a blank spot” in the nuclear chart due to the difficulties of producing them using conventional reactions such as fission or fragmentation.
We used multi-nucleon transfer reactions of 136Xe...

In the standard electroweak model, the weak current with a Vector – Axial-vector (V-A) form explains the weak interaction in a phenomenological context. However, the Lee-Yang Hamiltonian conserving Lorentz symmetry allows right-handed (V+A) as well as scalar, and tensor currents. For decades there have been efforts searching for such exotic currents as a test of the standard model. In...

The studies of low-lying excited states of the neutron-rich nuclei near the shell closures are one of the foremost topics of nuclear physics. The information of unstable, neutron-rich nuclei near N=126 magicity below 208Pb is crucial for understanding not only the nuclear structure of heavy nuclei but also the astrophysical r-process.

Muonic X-ray Spectroscopy is a technique that utilizes the properties of the muon to gain information about the structure of the atom and the nucleus. When interacting with an atom, the muon can be captured in a high principal atomic quantum number state. Once this occurs, it rapidly decays through the muonic energy levels to the atomic ground state, emitting high-energy X-rays (up to 10...

With the extension of the nuclear chart to more extreme regions, the precise and accurate measurement of the decay properties also become more and more challenging. Part of the solution to tackle down some of these challenges is to improve the detection setup of the nuclear experimental setup. One of these solutions is the transition to a fully digital electronic acquisition system.

The selective production of radioisotopes with low-energy particle accelerators based on fusion-evaporation reactions, or in nuclear reactors with neutron capture, partially relies on the availability of isotopically pure target material.

Production of medical radionuclides often requires the use of isotopically enriched targets. Depending on the natural abundance of the isotope in question and the chemical properties of the element to be enriched, the throughput of isotope enrichment facilities varies considerably. Different production paths may lead to the same radionuclide, e.g. (p,n), (p,2n), (p,α) or deuteron or α induced...
