Abstract
The Fission Product Prompt γ-ray Spectrometer (FIPPS) is a new instrument of the Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL) for the spectroscopy of nuclei produced after neutron induced reactions. The future upgrade of the instrument aims to explore the neutron-rich region of the nuclear chart with higher selectivity by identifying the fragments produced after neutron induced fission. The Gas-Filled-Magnet (GFM) technique has been chosen in order to obtain a good mass separation (<4 amu at A = 150) and a large geometrical and momentum acceptance (>50 msr and Δ P/P > 10%). A GFM design consisting of a 1/r magnetic field index and Thales circle-shaped entrance and exit magnet edges is proposed. The characteristic of the magnet is presented with realistic magnetic field calculations and Monte-Carlo simulations.
