Current status of experimental facilities at RAON

Abstract

The Rare Isotope Science Project (RISP) was established in December 2011 for the construction of the accelerator complex RAON (Rare isotope Accelerator complex for ON-line experiments) which will be used for the rare isotope science in Korea. The rare isotope accelerator at RAON will provide both stable and rare isotope (RI) beams with an energy range from a few keV to a few hundreds of MeV per nucleon for research in the fields of basic and applied sciences.At the moment, there are 7 experimental facilities considered at RAON: KOrea Broad acceptance Recoil spectrometer and Apparatus (KOBRA) and Large Acceptance Multi-Purpose Spectrometer (LAMPS) for nuclear physics, High Precision Mass Measurement System (HPMMS) with Multi-Reflection Time-of-Flight (MR-ToF) and Collinear Laser Spectroscopy (CLS) for nuclear physics using atomic physics techniques, Nuclear Data Production System (NDPS) for nuclear reaction data, Muon Spin Rotation/Relaxation/Resonance (μSR) for material science, and Beam Irradiation System (BIS) for bio-medical science.In this paper, the current status including detail design and research goal of 7 experimental facilities at RAON will be discussed.
