Description
The CAFE2 (China Accelerator Facility for superheavy Elements) is a new facility constructed at IMP-CAS (Institute of Modern Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences). It is based on the upgrade of a superconducting linear accelerator. A new gas-filled recoil separator SHANS2 (Spectrometer for Heavy Atoms and Nuclear Structure-2) with a total flight length path of 5.85 m at the CAFE2 is designed to synthesize and study the superheavy elements, including their physical and chemical properties. The maximum acceptable divergence angles of the SHANS2 are 70 mrad and 113 mrad in horizontal and vertical directions, respectively, and the maximum magnetic rigidity is 2.5 Tm. The ion-optical design and simulation are investigated in detail, including the first and the fifth order beam optics. The magnets design and magnetic field calculation are presented. Using the 3D field maps, a multiparticle tracking study is carried out for the design validation, trajectory analysis, and performance evaluation.
