Description
The push to study the properties of nuclei far from stability has led to a renewed interest in the use of direct reactions motivated by both nuclear structure and astrophysics. This talk will discuss some of the the experimental requirements for performing direct reaction studies using extracted beams from the TRS. The potential of a solenoidal spectrometer system will be assessed by comparison with other experimental techniques. Options and upgrade paths for a solenoid for the TRS will be discussed.
