Technology for Spiral 2
Spiral2 is being constructed at GANIL in Caen, France.
This will be the world’s largest ISOL facility for the production and acceleration of beams of rare isotopes. www.ganil.fr/spiral2
World leading ISOL facility SPIRAL2 will use a superconducting heavy ion linac together with coupled cyclotrons to produce intense beams of rare isotopes.
The beams of exotic nuclei produced andreaccelerated to energies near the Coulombwill provide an excellent complement to themuch higher energy beams of other isotopesto be produced by the FAIR facility at GSI.
The accelerated nuclei will be extremelyneutron rich, often produced as fission fragments, and will be used to study hownuclear shells and nuclear structure evolvesto be different for very exotic nuclei.
Advanced detector systems such asEXOGAM, TIARA, VAMOS & CHARISSAhave been developed by collaborationsincluding major UK effort. Surrey leads theTIARA collaboration and has major roles inthe others. The Surrey experimental nuclearphysics group is constantly developing newtechniques to exploit exotic nuclear beams.
