Abstract

The TULIP project (https://anr.fr/Projet-ANR-18-CE31-0023) aims to produce radioactive ion beams of short-lived neutron-deficient isotopes using fusion-evaporation nuclear reactions in an Isotope Separator On Line (ISOL) system. A Ni target was chosen to produce Rb and Sn isotopes, and was bombarded, respectively, by Ne and Cr primary beams at energies close to the Coulomb barrier. Owing to the Target Ion Source System (TISS) configuration, the operational TISS temperature had to be close to 1300°C. Several tests were performed to determine a configuration able to cope with the constraints related to the TISS, target and beam. This article presents a brief description of the TULIP principles and objectives, and the development of the Ni target.
