Session 11 - Storage rings
- Jens Dilling (triumf/UBC)
Heavy, highly charged ions stored at low energy are ideal probes for various questions of modern physics that range from tests of QED especially at high fields to detailed investigations of nuclear reactions. An early installation of the low-energy storage ring LSR, a Swedish in kind contribution to the FAIR project in Darmstadt/Germany, provides the necessary environment for precise...
The Rare-RI Ring (R3) is located at RIKEN RI Beam Factory for the purpose of the systematically measurement for the basic properties of nuclei such as mass and lifetime including the r-process region. The R3 is an isochronous ring of an unprecedented concept that can inject, circulate, and quick extract an ion one-by-one. An isochronous field can be formed precisely in a wide momentum range by...
Nuclear mass measurements provide valuable information on the nuclear binding energy which reflects the summed result of all interactions among its constituent protons and neutrons. The systematic and accurate knowledge of nuclear masses have wide application in many areas of subatomic physics ranging from nuclear structure and astrophysics to the fundamental interactions and symmetries...
The multi-reflection time-of-flight mass spectrometer (MRTOF-MS) was first proposed by Wollnik and Przewloka. It has been developed as a new device in recent years for nuclear mass spectrometry and isobaric separation with ion bunches with kinetic energies ranged from a few hundreds of electron-Volts to a few kilo-electron-Volts. By extending the flight path using multi-reflection between...
