SPIRAL: The advanced EXOTIC BEAM FACILITY at ATLAS

external URL: http://www.ganil.fr/research/developments/spiral/

The SPIRAL project at GANIL was funded in December 1993 by the IN2P3/CNRS, DSM/CEA and the Regional Council of Lower Normandy. The SPIRAL facility, based on the ISOL method provides for production and separation of RIBs, with subsequent acceleration by a K=265 cyclotron to energies between 1.7A and 25A MeV, thus opening up the study of nuclear reactions around the Coulomb barrier to radioactive ion beams.
