 | Illustration of the current IGISOL facility. Primary beams from the K130 heavy-ion cyclotron are guided to the target chamber where secondary beams are produced in various nuclear reactions. Offline beams are produced using a discharge ion source that can be mounted inside the target chamber or an offline ion source located on the second floor. A dipole magnet is used to mass-separate the ion beam, after which it is guided to an RFQ cooler-buncher. The bunched and cooled beam is delivered to the RAPTOR beamline, highlighted in orange. An optical table dedicated to RAPTOR as well as MORA is indicated. See text for more details. |
 | Illustration of the RAPTOR beamline. The bunched ion beam arrives from the IGISOL RFQ cooler-buncher (top right). Magnetof detectors (MToF) and Faraday cups (FC) are used for beam diagnostics. The charge-exchange cell (CEC) converts ions into atoms as they interact with a hot neutralizer vapour. Kicker electrodes are used to remove non-neutralized ions. The radiofrequency (RF) electrode can be used for laser-radiofrequency double-resonance spectroscopy in the future. The different pressure regions are indicated in red, orange, and green. More details in the text. |
