A pathway towards decentralized studies of radioactive post-lead elements and their applications in beyond standard model physics
Moritz Pascal Reiter, Kriti Mahajan, Meetika Narang +21
Molecules have proven to be sensitive tools for studying physics beyond the standard model, with heavy and deformed nuclei offering decisive sensitivity to parity- and time-reversa…
Separation of atomic and molecular ions by ion mobility with an RF carpet
Ivan Miskun, Timo Dickel, Samuel Ayet San Andres +16
Gas-filled stopping cells are used at accelerator laboratories for the thermalization of high-energy radioactive ion beams. Common challenges of many stopping cells are a high mole…

Israel Mardor, Ofer Aviv, Marilena Avrigeanu +26
The Soreq Applied Research Accelerator Facility (SARAF) is under construction in the Soreq Nuclear Research Center at Yavne, Israel. When completed at the beginning of the next dec…
Mean range bunching of exotic nuclei produced by in-flight fragmentation and fission -- Stopped-beam experiments with increased efficiency
Timo Dickel, Christine Hornung, Daler Amanbayev +24
The novel technique of mean range bunching has been developed and applied at the projectile fragment separator FRS at GSI in four experiments of the FAIR phase-0 experimental progr…
Studying Gamow-Teller transitions and the assignment of isomeric and ground states at
Ali Mollaebrahimi, Christine Hornung, Timo Dickel +50
Direct mass measurements of neutron-deficient nuclides around the shell closure below Sn were performed at the FRS Ion Catcher (FRS-IC) at GSI, Germany. The nuclei w…
A Novel Method for the Measurement of Half-Lives and Decay Branching Ratios of Exotic Nuclei
Ivan Miskun, Timo Dickel, Israel Mardor +28
A novel method for simultaneous measurement of masses, Q-values, isomer excitation energies, half-lives and decay branching ratios of exotic nuclei has been demonstrated. The metho…
