29. Advanced Implantation Detector Array (AIDA)

Thomas Davinson (University of Edinburgh)

On behalf of the AIDA collaboration

The Advanced Implantation Detector Array (AIDA) is a state-of-the-art detector system for the measurement of the decay properties of exotic nuclei at fragmentation/fission facilities. Using highly segmented, large area double-sided silicon strip detectors the positions, energies and times of high energy implants and their subsequent low energy decays can be...

30. Beta counting systems at RIBF: requirements and options

Shunji Nishimura (RIKEN)

The beta-counting system has various requirements that depend on the conditions of radioactive isotope beams and the specific physics cases. We conducted decay experiments using double-sided silicon strips and plastic scintillation detectors. In my talk, I will report on the performance of the beta-counting systems used at RIBF and discuss the challenges involved in overcoming their associated...

31. The FRIB Decay Station initiator and its Active Stoppers

James M. Allmond (ORNL)

The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) will provide access to roughly 80% of the exotic isotopes predicted to exist up to uranium (Z = 92). The FRIB Decay Station (FDS) — an efficient, granular, and modular multi-detector system designed under a common infrastructure — will be a key discovery instrument for FRIB, focused on nuclear structure, nuclear astrophysics, fundamental symmetries,...
