Production of Exotic Nuclei at Relativistic Energies Martin Winkler, DP NUSTAR 14-4-05
Advantages of Projectile Fragmentationand – Fission at Relativistic Energies (0.5-1.5 GeV/u) • Chemistry independent separation • Secondary beams of all elements • Fast separation and transport to the experimental devices (less than s) • Providing secondary beams of short-lived isotopes • Kinematical focusing • Efficient injection into separators and storage rings • Full unambiguous Z-identification due to high velocities • Quasi-continuous secondary beams or alternatively short-pulsed beams • Option for beam cocktail of isotopes of similar A/Z Martin Winkler, DP NUSTAR 14-4-05
