Design of polarized radioactive-ion beams at the RISP for nuclear-structure, nuclear-reaction and astrophysics experiments

Abstract

Polarized rare isotope (RI) beams have been designed at the Rare Isotope Science Project (RISP) for the study of the nuclear-structure, nuclear-reaction and astrophysics experiments. A powerful method has been adopted for this work — the production of polarized RI beams via projectile fragmentation. The in-flight system line was designed for this purpose at the RISP by using the projectile fragmentation method. The working principle, schematic design and experiments to be performed at the RISP will be presented.
