Description

An air-core superconducting solenoid, with a diameter of 0.2 m and a length of 0.4 m, has been configured for use as a heavy-ion reaction-product spectrometer (E/A≤5 MeV/u) near θ = 00 (10 to 35 msr). The performance of the spectrometer was established using α-particle sources and nuclear-reaction products from (18O, 18Ne), (18O, 20Ne) and (18O, 14O) and masses determined for 30Mg, /sup 108/Ru and /sup 109/Rh. A system suitable for production of radioactive beams has been constructed, and in-beam tests are in progress at the University of Notre Dame. Large air-core solenoids with dΩ≤20 msr and capable of focusing ions with E/A≥30 MeV/u appear feasible
