In the past few decades, nuclear physics research has seen tremendous progress as several radioactive-ion beam facilities with unprecedented beam intensities are coming online around the world. These facilities open up the way to access and
study the most exotic nuclei ever produced on earth, bringing us closer to the elusive nuclear systems that play a crucial role in astrophysical sites such as supernovas and neutron stars. The advent of this new era has also been driven by the new, dedicated apparatuses and in particular the new, state-of-the-art detection systems that employ the latest technological advances in ionizing detection technology, data acquisition and data processing. Silicon detectors, strip and pixel, play a particularly important role in these apparatuses.
Application of these detectors within the R3B and EXPERT setups at GSI are discussed.
