SPIRAL status

  • 1. GANIL, B.P. 5027, 14076 Caen Cedex 5 (France)

Description

The radioactive ion beam facility SPIRAL, presently under construction, is based on the very high intensity heavy ion beam (96 A MeV at 6 kW from He to Ar) soon available at GANIL, France. The facility will produce radioactive ion beams by the ISOL method making use of a permanent magnet ECRIS which allows the production of multiple charged radioactive ions. The beam will be accelerated by a K = 265 compact cyclotron and delivered into the existing experimental area of GANIL. The first tests of the acceleration of stable beams by the new cyclotron has been made in last December. A description of the facility, including the results of the radioactive ion beam production and perspectives are given. (author)
