Abstract
Gas catchers allow the transformation of radioactive recoils from various sources into a good optical quality low-energy radioactive beam that is then available for experiments at low-energy or for further acceleration. The CARIBU project uses such a large gas catcher to create beams of neutron-rich isotopes from a Californium source for post-acceleration through the ATLAS superconducting linac to open new research opportunities for nuclear structure physics and astrophysics. The RF gas catcher developed at Argonne has now demonstrated operation at the high intensity required for this application.
