Description
For over 30 years, the TwinSol radioactive ion beam facility at Notre Dame’s Nuclear Science Laboratory has provided in-flight radioactive ion beams (RIB) to a variety of experiments probing nuclear structure, astrophysics and fundamental symmetries. These relatively low-mass, high-rate beams have enabled a swath of science, including high-precision beta-decay half-life measurements, probes of electromagnetic observables in the lightest nuclei, and recoiling detection measurements of astrophysically-relevant cross-sections. Currently, TwinSol beams can either be delivered to the Superallowed Transition Beta-Neutrino Decay Ion Coincidence Trap (St. Benedict) facility for precision beta decay measurement, or through a newly installed third solenoid for improved beam purity and RIB mass range for a variety of experiments. The first RIB developments for these beamlines, recent technical developments, as well as the current and future scientific program at the new TriSol facility will be presented.
