Abstract
An accelerated radioactive beams facility for nuclear astrophysics studies was proposed for installation at the TRIUMF facility (Vancouver, Canada) several years ago. It would consist of a front-end on-line separator (ISOL) coupled with a post-accelerator booster stage. The resulting radioactive ion beam would have sufficient energy to perform rate measurements of sub-barrier fusion reactions, involving short-lived reactants. A status report is presented herein along with detailed information on the installation and use of TISOL, a prototype of the frond-end isotope separator device.
