RAON (Rare isotope Accelerator complex for ON-line experiments) is Korea's flagship heavy-ion accelerator facility, established to advance fundamental research on rare isotopes and their applications. The construction of the facility—including building infrastructure, installation of the low-energy superconducting linac (SCL3) with its injector system, the ISOL (Isotope Separation On-Line)...
TRIUMF's ISAC facility operates ISOL targets under high-power particle irradiation up to 500 MeV and 100 μA of current, producing Radioactive Ion Beams (RIBs) for Canadians and international nuclear and particle physics experiments. The ARIEL facility (Advanced Rare IsotopE Laboratory) is currently under construction with the objective to add two RIBs, in addition to the RIB already being...
The growing demand for more intense and diverse exotic beams has driven the development of a new high-temperature ISOL (Isotope Separation On-Line) target for the SPIRAL1 (Système de Production d’Ions Radioactifs Accélérés en Ligne) facility at GANIL (Grand Accélérateur National d’Ions Lourds). The primary objective is to enhance the production yields of several radioactive isotopes of...
The ISOL facility under development by the Belgian Nuclear Research Centre (SCK CEN), ISOL@MYRRHA, will leverage a fraction of the MYRRHA accelerator's proton beam to produce radioactive ion beams (RIBs). Already built as part of MYRRHA phase 1, the facility will receive in this phase a 100-MeV proton beam, up to 0.5 mA.
With the aim of producing high-intensity RIBs for several research...
A milestone of the 2024 ISAC RIB campaign at TRIUMF was the successful extraction and measurement of 14Be at the GRIFFIN detector. The interest for 14Be production in ISAC is mainly driven by the beta-decay studies of halo nuclei and their mass measurements. Due to the low production rate of 14Be and its very short half-life (4.35 ms), this rare exotic isotope challenges the limits of the ISOL...
Next-generation in-flight radioactive isotope (RI) beam facilities, including the RIKEN Radioactive Isotope Beam Factory (RIBF), the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB), and the upcoming Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR), primarily use two reaction mechanisms: in-flight fission for medium-mass neutron-rich isotopes and projectile fragmentation for high-purity RI beams near the...
