DESPEC experiments aim at a detailed study of the decay mechanisms in the most exotic nuclear species at reach at GSI/FAIR, with the measurements of decay half-lives, competing decay modes, and isomeric state identification. For the DESPEC experimental program, ions will be stopped in an active implanter and their subsequent decays will be measured. The active implanter’s role is to stop the...
DEcay SPECtroscopy (DESPEC) experiments [1] are part of the NUSTAR collaboration, one of the four scientific pillars of the FAIR/GSI facility. Those experiments aim at studing the properties of exotic nuclei using high- resolution decay spectroscopy. They are currently performed at the FRagment Separator (FRS) and will be, in the future, at the Super-FRS facility at FAIR, at GSI. The DESPEC...
The detection of heavy ions and light particles in inorganic scintillators has been recently implemented in fragmentation facilities for measurements of beta decay and charged particle emission. One of the challenges of using scintillators in these experiments is the need to simultaneously detect energetic ions, which deposit GeV energy, and subsequent decays, which can deposit less than 1...
