  1. First Feasibility Experiment and Simulations for EXL Hossein Moeini, for the EXL Collaboration KVI- University of Groningen

  2. Motivation • Classical method of nuclear spectroscopy: - light ion induced direct reactions: (p,p), (p,p’), (d,p), (,’)… • Past and present experiments: - before RIB facilities – stable nuclei and mainly external targets. - now – unstable nuclei in inverse kinematics only at external targets. Unstable nuclei and internal targets • EXL at future FAIR facilities: - explore new regions of the chart of nuclides.

  3. Feasibility setup at ESR Experimental conditions: & target density ~ 1012cm-3

  4. Elastic Scattering Cross Section (E1>500keV) point-like * Δ 3mm FWHM 7.5 mm FWHM experiment

  5. EXL setup at NESR • Detection systems: • Target recoils and gammas (p,,n,…) • Forward ejectiles (p,n,) •  Beam-like heavy ions Gas-jet Design goals: High energy and angular resolution  Low background High luminosity (<1028 cm-2s-1) Large solid angle acceptance  UHV compatibility beam

  13. Energy Resolution for Protons for Region B 1mm ■ 0.5mm ▲ 0.1mmΔ No shell ┼

  14. Energy Resolution for Protons for Region C 1mm ■ 0.5mm ▲ 0.1mmΔ No shell ┼

  16. Magnetic elements done by Masoud Shafiei, University of Tehran Full Geometry

  17. Conclusion • First experiment at ESR with ‘complete’ setup • Reaction channels could be identified • Absolute measurement of the luminosity • Agreement with simulation results • Feasibility is proven  experiment with unstable beam at (N)ESR is possible • Simulations for the EXL with the full geometry available could be performed.
