Description

The Electromagnetic Mass Analyzer, EMMA, is a recoil mass spectrometer installed at the ISAC-II facility of TRIUMF. It is designed to spatially separate the recoils of nuclear reactions from the beams that induce them and to disperse the products in a focal plane according to their mass-to-charge ratios. A first test of the spectrometer was carried out in December 2016 in which an 80 MeV $^{36}$Ar beam struck an Au foil. The results of this test will be presented.
