Precision measurements of the final-state products in nuclear beta decay and electron capture (EC) decay processes can be used as powerful laboratories to search for beyond standard model (BSM) physics from the meV to TeV scale, as well as for targeting fundamental questions of quantum mechanics at the subatomic scale. For the past seven years, the BeEST (Beryllium Electron capture in...

SALER (Superconducting Array for Low-Energy Radiation) is a new experimental platform that uses superconducting sensors to study radioactive decay through direct detection of eV-scale nuclear recoil and other low-energy observables. The approach has already been developed and tested in the rare-isotope environment at FRIB, establishing its promise as a powerful new tool for precision decay...

Many experiments at radioactive ion beam (RIB) facilities require isobarically and isomerically pure beams at high ion intensities. Over the years, Multi-Reflection Time-of-Flight (MR-ToF) devices have gained remarkable attention for mass separation of short-lived radionuclides. They exceed mass resolving powers of m/Δm =1e5 within a few (tens of) milliseconds. Space charge effects, however,...
