  1. The ISOLDE Solenoidal Spectrometer project Robert Page

  2. The original plan: Move TSR to ISOLDE UK STFC funded project ~£5M investment Internal spectrometer External spectrometer Start January 2015 Completion March 2019 Spectrometer Systems for TSR@ISOLDE

  3. Physics Motivation

  4. Solenoidal spectrometer concept vlab v0 θlab θcm z Vcm CM Angle: CM Energy:

  5. Challenges: TSR not in CERN MTP Spectrometer Systems for TSR@ISOLDE

  6. Internal Spectrometer Plan to exploit Si detector system on CRYRING@ESR

  7. Challenges: TSR not in CERN MTP ISS on XT02 beam line No TSR – beam quality (beam manipulation) No funding for magnet Spectrometer Systems for TSR@ISOLDE

  8. Magnet procurement • Magnet available from Brisbane (UQ) • OR66 4T ex-MRI magnet • “Active shield” reduces stray field • Installed February 2003 • Discharged then warmed ~2013 • Funding request (STFC/UoL) June 2015

  9. Magnet in Wesley Hospital, Brisbane, September 2015

  10. Magnet procurement • Magnet available from Brisbane (UQ) • OR66 4T ex-MRI magnet • “Active shield” reduces stray field • Installed February 2003 • Discharged then warmed ~2013 • Funding request (STFC/UoL) June 2015 • Magnet ordered November 2015

  11. Magnet leaving Brisbane hospital February 2016

  12. sailing across the globe… Calicanto Bridge

  13. sailing across the globe… Sarah

  14. & arriving at CERN, April 2016

  15. Preparation & cleaning magnet bore ~90 cm diameter

  16. Vacuum test

  17. Cooling down, January 2017 Thanks to CERN cryogenics team, Patrick Retz, ...

  18. Energising, February 2017 ramped up to 2.75 T, held for 1 hour then ramped down

  19. In the ISOLDE Hall ~18 tons – too heavy for ISOLDE hall crane!

  20. on its stand, aligned & connected

  21. Stray field

  22. Magnetic shielding design Jérémie Bauche, Kevin Buffet & Yacine Kadi (CERN)

  23. ISS inside the magnet beam

  24. ISS Mechanical Design Target & detector drive systems Hexagonal Si tube ~50 cm long 4 DSSDs per face ASIC readout Cooled

  25. ISS Si detector module 6 R3B ASICs 0 – 50 MeV 128 channels 100 MHz time stamp daisy-chained

  26. Si detectors DSSDs: 1 mm thick x: 128 × 0.95 mm y: 11 × 2 mm

  27. 132Sn(d,p) with TSR beam quality simulations by Marc Labiche

  28. PCBs

  29. PCB trial assembly

  30. Si tube cross section

  31. Reconstructing the z position CM Energy: Algorithm devised by P. Butler Implemented in GEANT4 by M. Labiche

  32. Exploitation plans early exploitation before LS2 stable & long-lived isotope running during LS2 + commissioning of the ISS Si array + commissioning of gas recoil detector… followed by ISS running after LS2

  33. Conclusions • Design work well advanced • First Si DSSDs delivered • Prototype tests under way • Magnet recommissioned • ISOLDE integration continuing
