RISINGRare ISotope INvestigation at GSI • The Accelerators: • UNILAC(injector) E<11.5 MeV/n • SIS 18Tmcorr. U 1 GeV/n • Beam Currents: 108 - 109 pps • FRS --> secondary radioactive ion beams: • Fragmentation or fission of primary beams • High secondary beam energies: • 100 – 700 MeV/u • Fully stripped ions • Reactions on a secondary target • Implantation inside a stopper • Nuclear structure of exotic nuclei studied bySecondary fragmentation and Relativistic Coulomb excitation • g-factor measurements • Isomeric gamma and beta decay studies
EUROBALL Cluster Detectors Beam Tracking system Why at FRS@GSI ? • Unique European facility for relativistic (b ≥ 0.4) exotic beams • lifetime range ≥100 ns • fully stripped beams • Spin Aligned beams + Miniball – Hector
