Some experimental consideration Experiments need high energy resolution (1/1000), forward angles (around 0) exploration and large momentum byte (1020%) Magnetic spectrographs IPN-Orsay Split-Pole Energy resolution 1/1000 Momentum byte 36 % Solid angle 1.8 msr The small solid angle limits the possibility to study weak narrow states above neutron emission threshold
The MAGNEX opportunity Large solid angle and high energy resolution A.Cunsolo et al., NIMA 481 (2002) 48 A.Cunsolo et al., NIMA 484 (2002) 56 A.Cunsolo et al., NIMA 495 (2002) 216
Conclusions and outlooks • Exploration of excited states of light neutron rich nuclei is a rich source of information about nuclear structure • High energy resolution is crucial to that purpose • Use of refined microscopic theories is also fundamental • Challanges • Use of the MAGNEX spectrometer (starting from next weeks) • Full development of the microscopic DCP theory (on the run)
