Masses and half-lives of a large number of neutron-rich nuclei in the element range from U to Tl were measured in a recent Schottky run.

These nuclides were produced by fragmenting ²³⁸U primary beam with intensities of up to 2·10⁹ ions/spill in Be (4g/cm²) production target at the entrance of the Fragment Separator FRS. The neutron-rich projectile fragments were separated by the FRS and injected into the Experimental Storage Ring ESR. The stored ions were electron-cooled, and their revolution frequencies and intensities have been measured with time-resolved Schottky Mass Spectrometry (SMS).

We have identified 4 new isotopes and meansured the masses of tens of isotopes for the first time. For the new isotope ²³⁵Ac also the half-life has been measured in addition. The principle of mass and half-life measurements by using SMS will be discussed, and the status of our data analysis will be presented.
