Abstract

The HIE-ISOLDE facility accelerates a unique worldwide variety of radioactive ions up to collision energies close to 10 MeV/A. The physics program covers a broad range of nuclear structure studies, from shell-evolution to nuclear astrophysics. The ISOLDE Superconducting Recoil Separator (ISRS) [1, 2] will extend HIE-ISOLDE physics by providing unprecedented mass selectivity for in-beam and focal-plane spectroscopy. ISRS is an array of iron-free superconducting multifunction magnets, cooled by cryocoolers, integrated into a compact Fixed-Field Alternating Gradient (FFAG) particle storage ring where A/Q selectivity is achieved by combining the fragment cyclotron frequency and RF extraction with ToF and particle identification at the focal plane [3]. The ISRS collaboration has recently launched a R&D program funded by Spain. The ISRS concept can be extended for developing an exotic beam storage-ring to perform in-ring experiments with an internal target [4]. In this contribution we will review the physics opportunities and technical challenges of the ISRS spectrometer.
