Abstract

Various ion manipulation tools based on ion trapping technologies have been implemented at the IGISOL-facility in JYFL. An RFQ ion cooler and buncher is used to enhance the sensitivity of collinear laser spectroscopy and as an injector to the Penning trap. Penning traps are utilized both in nuclear spectroscopy and for precision mass measurements, as explained in the paper. Atomic masses of neutron-rich Zr, Mo and Sr isotopes were found to be in disagreement with the Atomic-Mass Evaluation and two-neutron separation energies imply strong nuclear structure effects at the neutron number N = 60.
