Session 7 - Instrumentation for radioactive ion beam experiments
- Christoph Scheidenberger (GSI, JLU-Giessen)
The Advanced GAmma Tracking Array is a next generation high-resolution gamma-ray spectrometer for nuclear structure studies based on the novel principle of gamma-ray tracking. It is built from a novel type of high-fold segmented germanium detectors which will operate in position-sensitive mode by employing digital electronics and pulse-shape decomposition algorithms. The unique combination of...

The ISOLDE Decay Station (IDS) [1] has been a permanent experiment used for studies of low-energy nuclear physics at the CERN-ISOLDE facility, since 2014. The core of the setup consists of four, high-efficiency, clover-type germanium detectors and a tape transportation system. These can be coupled to a number of ancillary detector arrays,...
Fast scintillator detectors such as LaBr$_3$(Ce) are changing the landscape in several research fields including experimental nuclear physics and medical imaging systems. This is due to the combination of excellent time response, good energy resolution and high effective Z. Advanced instrumentation for radioactive ion beam experiments takes advantage of these novel scintillator crystals and...
