Descripción
The low-energy Coulomb-excitation technique is capable of providing unique information on static electromagnetic moments of short-lived excited nuclear states, including non-yrast states. The process selectively populates low-lying collective states and is ideally suited to study phenomena such as shape coexistence and the development of exotic deformation (triaxial or octupole shapes) in stable and radioactive nuclei.
In this talk, I will present the SPIDER detector, an array of segmented silicon detectors for low-energy Coulomb-excitation experiments designed as an ancillary device for modern gamma-ray spectrometers, and currently used at the INFN Legnaro National Laboratories (LNL). Also, I will talk about some highlight of the past experimental campaigns and discuss some features and capabilities of the detector.
