Dual-mode solenoidal spectrometers combine flexibility, high detection efficiency, and precise kinematic reconstruction for reaction studies with rare isotope beams. This concept enables operation in two complementary modes: an active target mode employing a gaseous Active Target Time Projection Chamber (AT-TPC) for studies with low-intensity or extended targets, and a silicon detector array...
Employing storage rings for precision physics experiments with highly charged ions (HCI) is a powerful approach – yet the full potential of this method remains to be unlocked at low energies. Storage of freshly produced secondary particles in a storage ring is a straightforward way to achieve the most efficient use of these rare species.
All presently operating heavy-ion storage rings are...
Electron scattering is a powerful tool for probing nuclear structure,
because it enables model-independent studies. For instance, elastic electron scattering accurately provides the charge density distribution of nuclei, directly reflecting their nuclear shape. Furthermore, inelastic electron scattering and other electron-induced reactions significantly aid our understanding of nuclear...
