Abstract The gas-filled recoil separator RITU at the Department of Physics, University of Jyvaskyla (JYFL) was constructed in 1992–1993, and the first experiments were performed in late 1993. RITU differs from other gas-filled separators by having a vertically focusing quadrupole magnet in front of the separating dipole for better matching with the dipole acceptance. New results from RITU include the discovery of 13 previously unpublished isotopes of At, Rn, Fr, Ra, Ac and Th, while experiments in the transuranium region have also been made. Illustrative examples from these studies together with results on background properties, efficiency of separation, and other performance data will be presented.
