Multi-Reflection Time-of-Flight (MR-ToF) devices are powerful tools for high-precision mass spectrometry, highly selective and high-flux mass separation as well as, most recently, for highly sensitive laser spectroscopic applications. In this work, various ion-optical simulations are conducted to provide insights into optimizing the design of the MR-ToF apparatus to enhance performance across its diverse application fields. [...]

Isotopes at the limits of nuclear existence are of great interest for their critical role in nuclear astrophysical reactions and their exotic structure. Experimentally, exotic nuclides are challenging to address due to their low production cross-sections, overwhelming amounts of contamination, and lifetimes of typically less than a second. [...]

Simulation studies of a 30-keV MR-ToF device for highly sensitive collinear laser spectroscopy
/ Maier, F M (CERN ; Greifswald U.) ; Vilen, M (CERN) ; Belosevic, I (TRIUMF) ; Buchinger, F (McGill U.) ; Kanitz, C (CERN ; Erlangen - Nuremberg U.) ; Lechner, S (CERN ; McGill U.) ; Leistenschneider, E (CERN) ; Nörtershäuser, W (Darmstadt, Tech. U.) ; Plattner, P (CERN ; Innsbruck U.) ; Schweikhard, L (Greifswald U.) et al.
The Multi Ion Reflection Apparatus for Collinear Laser Spectroscopy (MIRACLS) seeks to extend the reach of high-resolution collinear laser spectroscopy (CLS) to more exotic radionuclides. In this novel technique, ion bunches of short-lived radioisotopes are trapped between two electrostatic mirrors of a Multi-Reflection Time-of-Flight (MR-ToF) device at 30-keV kinetic energy. [...]

Doppler and sympathetic cooling for the investigation of short-lived radioactive ions
/ Sels, S (CERN ; Leuven U.) ; Maier, F M (CERN ; Greifswald U.) ; Au, M (CERN ; Mainz U.) ; Fischer, P (Greifswald U.) ; Kanitz, C (CERN) ; Lagaki, V (CERN ; Greifswald U.) ; Lechner, S (CERN ; TU Vienna) ; Leistenschneider, E (CERN) ; Leimbach, D (CERN ; Mainz U., Inst. Phys. ; U. Gothenburg (main)) ; Lykiardopoulou, E M (British Columbia U. ; TRIUMF) et al.
At radioactive ion beam (RIB) facilities, ions of short-lived radionuclides are cooled and bunched in buffergas-filled Paul traps to improve the ion-beam quality for subsequent experiments. To deliver even colder ions, beneficial to RIB experiments’ sensitivity or accuracy, we employ Doppler and sympathetic cooling in a Paul trap cooler-buncher. [...]

Nuclear mass measurements of isotopes are key to improving our understanding of nuclear structure across the chart of nuclides, in particular for the determination of the appearance or disappearance of nuclear shell closures. We present high-precision mass measurements of neutron-rich Ca, Ti and V isotopes performed at the TITAN and LEBIT facilities. [...]

Protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleus move in shells analogous to the electronic shell structures of atoms. Nuclear shell structure varies across the nuclear landscape due to changes of the nuclear mean field with the number of neutrons $N$ and protons $Z$. [...]
