  1. ORISS Isomer and Isobar Spectrometer and Separatorfor StudyofExoticDecays A. Piechaczek for the

  2. UNIRIB Consortium • The purpose is to provide a nuclear research facility at ORNL for consortium members • Consortium members: EMIS 2007

  3. Our Deliverable is Science – Nuclear Physics • We do research • We give scientific reports at meetings • We train students • UNIRIB, with ORISE and ORAU, provides a university atmosphere in a national laboratory EMIS 2007

  4. Motivation to build ORISS – Oak Ridge Isomer/Isobar Spectrometer and Separator: • Decay studies often possible from yield considerations, but limited by background from isobaric/isomeric contamination • Need high resolution separator for background suppression ORISS predicted performance: • High mass resolving power, M/∆M up to 400,000 (FWHM) • Almost complete Suppression of neighboring isobar • High efficiency ~ 50% • Chemistry independent • Transportable • Cost effective • … use Multi-pass Time of Flight principle!

  5. Multi-pass Time-of-Flight system: concept MCP detector or electrostatic gate Pulsed ion source Pulsed exit electrode Pulsed entry electrode Individual electrodes 1st Electrostatic Mirror 2nd Electrostatic Mirror MTOFSpectrometer:Spectrum taken with MCP MTOF Separator: Physical separation using fast electrostatic gate (Bradbury Nielsen gate) DToF = ½ ToFDM/M EMIS 2007

  6. What you could do with mass resolving power of 400,000: • resolve all isobars • resolve isomers M/DM < 200,000 (470 kev @ A=100) Ge A=77 Ga Ge .160 As Se Se .161 Zn Zn .772 T – T0 [microseconds]

  7. Strawman layout of ORISS at UNISOR RB Ion Source UNISOR mass separator “pre-separator” Beta and Gamma ray Detectors ORISS RF-cooler and buncher Beam diagnostics, electrostatic decelerator

  8. Applications of ORISSDecay spectroscopy with pure sources for p-rich and n-richDecay spectroscopy of isomers with sufficient excitationSurvey searches for isomersModular Total Absorption Spectrometer - GT strength functionsFuture: masses/mass differencesFuture: RIB injector

  9. Physics… Regions around 100Sn 132Sn 78Ni Regions around 100Sn, 132S, 78Ni

  10. Physics application: Decay Heat and spectroscopy for advanced nuclear fuel cycle Many critical measurements can be performed at UNISOR with ORISS All critical measurements can be performed at UNISOR with ORISS and He-Jet ion source Elements available with He-Jet ion source
