EXL - Exotic nuclei studied in light-ion induced reactions
at the NESR storage ring
The EXL experiment is part of
the NUSTAR
project for Nuclear Structure, Astrophysics and Reactions studies with
radioactive ion beams produced in the Super-FRS
at the future Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR)
in Darmstadt, Germany.
The
EXL Experiment
We propose to study the
structure of unstable exotic nuclei in light-ion scattering experiments at
intermediate energies. The EXL objective is to capitalise on light-ion
reactions in inverse kinematics by using novel storage-ring techniques and
a universal detector system providing high resolution and large solid angle
coverage in kinematically complete measurements.
The apparatus is foreseen being installed at the internal target at the
NESR storage-cooler ring. It comprises (i) a
silicon target-recoil detector for charged particles, completed by
gamma-ray and slow-neutron detectors, located around the internal gas-jet
target, (ii) forward detectors for fast ejectiles
(both charged particles and neutrons) and (iii) an in-ring heavy-ion
spectrometer.
