Optimizing the Solid-State ISOL Technique for Separating Volatile Products of Complete Fusion Reactions

AbstraktAbstract

Experiments on measuring the separation efficiency of evaporation residues produced in complete fusion reactions with heavy ions have been performed on the MASHA mass separator. A new design has been developed for a hot catcher based on the use of thin paper from graphite nanotubes and graphene. The catcher is to be used for the synthesis of nuclei at a high intensity of the primary beam to increase the efficiency of separation. A 16-strip silicon detector was used for continuous monitoring during an experiment to measure the mass spectrometer’s efficiency of separation in the intermediate focal plane.
