Beamline for low-energy transport of highly charged ions at HITRAP
2015
Abstract A beamline for transport of highly charged ions with energies as low as a few keV/charge has been constructed and commissioned at GSI. Complementary to the existing infrastructure of the HITRAP facility for deceleration of highly charged ions from the GSI accelerator, the new beamline connects the HITRAP ion decelerator and an EBIT with the associated experimental setups. Therefore, the facility can now transport the decelerated heavy highly charged ions to the experiments or supply them offline with medium-heavy highly charged ions from the EBIT, both at energies as low as a few keV/charge. Here we present the design of the 20 m long beamline with the corresponding beam instrument…
Muonic radioactive atoms - a unique probe for nuclear structure
2004
Muonic atoms have been a source of high-precision experimental nuclear structure data for decades, through muonic X-rays that yield information on nuclear charge distributions. The intense driver beams for production of radioactive beams in so-called second generation facilities will simultaneously be capable of producing unprecedented amounts of low-energy muons. This paper concerns some of the potential synergies of combining unions with radioactive nuclei. as one possible new tool to be used at future RIB facilities. As a case study, muonic capture rates into highly excited states in Ni-78 have been calculated.
First measurement of target and beam-target asymmetries in theγp→π0ηpreaction
2015
The first data on target and beam-target asymmetries for the gamma p -> pi(0)eta p reaction at photon energies from 1050 up to 1450 MeV are presented. The measurements were performed using the Crystal Ball and TAPS detector setup at the Glasgow tagged photon facility of the Mainz Microtron MAMI. The general assumption that the reaction is dominated by the Delta 3/2-amplitude is confirmed. The data are in particular sensitive to small contributions from other partial waves.
Preaccelerator concepts for an energy-recovering superconducting accelerator
2021
In this paper we compare two concepts of a preaccelerator for the energy-recovery linac MESA: a hybrid injector that combines normal conducting and superconducting technology and a fully normal conducting injector. The particle source delivers polarized electrons at 100 keV. Thus the first accelerating section has to be of a graded-β kind. The graded-β section is designed with a final energy exceeding 1 MeV so TESLA-type nine-cell resonators can be used as superconducting cavities. The final energy of the preaccelerator shall be 5 MeV to avoid neutron production in the beam dump of the energy-recovery linac.
Recent results from experiments at MAMI
2012
Abstract The Mainz Microtron MAMI is an ideal tool for studying the structure of strongly interacting systems with an electromagnetic probe. With the new HDSM accelerator stage of MAMI C, a continuous-wave electron beam with an energy of up to 1604 MeV and excellent beam quality is available for precision experiments. In addition, polarisation degrees of freedom can be exploited with polarised beams and either polarised targets or recoil polarimetry. This paper presents selected results of the A1, A2, and A4 collaborations.
COLLINEAR LASER SPECTROSCOPY ON NEUTRON-RICH Mn ISOTOPES APPROACHING N = 40
2015
We have studied 51,53−64Mn (Z=25) via bunched-beam collinear laser spectroscopy at ISOLDE, CERN. Model-independent information on the ground- and isomeric state spins, as well as their g-factors is obtained from the measured hyperfine spectra. The spins are essential for further establishing the level schemes in the mass region, while the g-factors reveal the changing ground state wave functions in the Mn chain approaching N=40. ispartof: pages:699-702 ispartof: Acta Physica Polonica B vol:46 issue:3 pages:699-702 ispartof: location:Zakopane, Poland status: published
In-beam study of 102In, 104In and 106In
1995
Proton-rich odd-odd In isotopes have been investigated by in-beam spectroscopic methods using the NORDBALL detector array. A Ni-58 beam with an energy of 270 MeV was used to bombard a Fe-54 target. ...
Results from the Real Photon Programme at MAMI
1995
The accelerator MAMI (Mainzer Mikrotron) with its excellent beam properties and its duty factor of 100% allows to apply coincidence techniques in intermediate energy nuclear physics, which has led to a variety of results with high precision. The real photon collaboration (A2) uses energy tagged bremsstrahlung photons with energies up to 800 MeV. We have results on total photon absorption (proton, deuteron, 3He and U), on Compton scattering (proton, 4He and 12C) and on meson production, especially on π°- and η-photoproduction. Double pion production on the proton and the deuteron was measured. The two and three body breakup of 3He was investigated as well as the reactions (γ,NN) and (γ, π ± …
Search for Pulsed Gamma Ray Emission above 50 MeV from NP 0532
1971
OBSERVATIONS of the pulsar NP 0532 in the gamma ray region have yielded evidence of pulsed gamma ray emission for energies up to 10 MeV (refs. 1, 2 and Kurfess, to be published). Above this energy, upper limits between 10 MeV and 150 MeV (refs. 3, 4) and above 50 MeV (ref. 5) are indicated. A result above 70 MeV with phase error of 3 ms with respect to optical signal has been given by a counter experiment6.
Fission fragment angular distribution of 232Th(n,f) at the CERN n TOF facility
2014
The angular distribution of fragments emitted in neutron-induced fission of 232Th was measured in the white spectrum neutron beam at the n_TOF facility at CERN. A reaction chamber based on Parallel Plate Avalanche Counters (PPAC) was used, where the detectors and the targets have been tilted 45 degrees with respect to the neutron beam direction in order to cover the full angular range of the fission fragments. A GEANT4 simulation has been developed to study the setup efficiency. The data analysis and the preliminary results obtained for the 232Th(n,f) between fission threshold and 100 MeV are presented here.
