Abstract
Basic characteristics of a gas-jet transport system for an on-line isotope separator have been investigated using a 252Cf source and a 235U fission source. The transport efficiency of fission products through a capillary has been measured to be about 60% for the 235U fission source. The sweep-out time of fission products through a target chamber and the transit time through a capillary have been measured for He, N 2 and CO 2 gases at several pressures. The measured sweep-out times have been almost equal to the exchange over time of the gas. The transit times have been found to be reasonably predicted by calculations. The transport system has been incorporated into the KUR-ISOL and is used for the study of short-lived nuclei.
