New developments on detection systems are have been going on since the mid 90's order to build arrays with improved sensitivity by increasing peak to total (P/T) and efficiency. The adopted solution is the use of large volume GeHP detector with position sensitivity based on segmented contacts and Pulse Shape Analysis (PSA). In these new arrays the target can be surrounded by hundreds of...
The study of 𝛽𝛽-decays far from stability is essential to understand the evolution of nuclear structure and nucleosynthesis processes. 𝛽𝛽-decay experiments with such exotic nuclei involve intense cocktail beams from fragmentation facilities. The role of an implantation detector in these experiments is to measure the energy and the positions of both heavy ion implantation and 𝛽𝛽-ray emission to...
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...
Silicon detectors are widely used in various fields of physics, including nuclear physics and astrophysics. Over time, several generations of detectors have succeeded one another, becoming increasingly performant in terms of precision and accuracy of observables, as well as in their number and type. In this contribution, I will discuss different types of detectors, from EUCLIDES to GRIT,...
