Energy spread Collinear laser spectroscopy setup Off-line Barium beam dEFWHM < 4 eV 20 MHz doppler broadening Beam intensity cut off vs. bias voltage. Intensive beams (129Xe, few nA) dEFWHM = 1.5 eV On-line beams 105 ions/s dEFWHM = 0.7 eV Off-line 129Xe+
Delay time IGISOL delay time ~ms Without axial field: diffusion, space charge Depends on: - Einj - dEinj - pHe Without axial field up to hundreds of ms Shorter by axial electric field (down to ms region) Longer beam bunching

Transmission - 29 MeV proton induced fission of 238U - Normal ion guide pressure 250 mbar - Skimmer voltage varied - A = 112 IGISOL beam (mostly 112Rh) - Beta count rate in two Si-detector setups, before and after the cooler - Transmission > 60 %
Potential along z - axis +70 V (collect) 0 V (release) +2 V +1 V +0.5 V Z -1V Bunching - Separator beam on t = 0 - 1000 ms - Cooler end plate voltage down t = 3300-4000 ms
