Description
With the advent of nuclear structure studies using antiproton annihilations on the surface of unstable nuclei at the PUMA experiment [1], isobaric beam purity and vacuum requirements with < 10^-10 mbar motivate the installation of a new beamline at ISOLDE. A Multi-Reflection Time-of-Flight mass spectrometer (MR-ToF MS) is currently in commissioning at the MIRACLS experiment [2], promising up to a factor hundred higher throughput with mass separation powers in excess of 100,000 within only a few milliseconds of storage time [3]. In this contribution, the current design plans for the new transfer beamline at RC6, incorporating the MIRACLS Paul trap and MR-ToF MS, will be presented.
