Abstract
A fast in-beam recoil catcher wheel has been constructed to perform particle spectroscopy on very proton-rich nuclei. The wheel speed can be varied to study nuclides whose half-lives range from 100 μs to ∼ 200 ms. Known beta-delayed proton emissions from the A = 4n + 1, Tz = −32 nuclides 17Ne, 21Mg, and 25Si as well as the beta-delayed two-proton decay from 22Al(t12 = 70 ms) were measured to test the wheel. Subsequently, a beta-delayed two-proton branch from 31Ar (t12 = 15 ms) was observed.
