Description
The ISOLDE Superconducting Fragment Separator (ISRS) [1, 2] is an innovative a high-resolution spectrometer foreseen to study the structure and dynamics of radioactive nuclei at HIE-ISOLDE. The sicentific program requires the use of a variety of nuclear reactions including Coulomb breakup/dissociation, fusion-evaporation, and transfer reactions in direct and inverse kinematics. Part of the foreseen reactions involve the rotation of ISRS to analyse heavy fragments ejected at angles as large as 70 degree. The chamber should be also suitable to be used in combination with neutron and gamma arrays, and for hosting light-ion solid-state detectors. The design of the ISRS scattering chamber is therefore a very challenging part of the project as it has to acomplish several detector constraints as well as those of the ISRS particle spectrometer itself. We present and discuss the design study of an innovative reaction chamber able to rotate and accommodate most of the requirements of the physics program. The reaction chamber will be installed at the MAGDEM ion-test bench for in-beam experiments.
