A database program for the search for nuclides of interest in nuclear physics experiments — •Christian Will¹, Florian Greiner¹, Julian Bergmann¹, Timo Dickel^1,2, Jens Ebert¹, Hans Geissel^1,2, Lars Liebschwager¹, Wayne Lippert¹, Wolfgang Plass^1,2, Moritz Pascal Reiter^1,3, and Christoph Scheidenberger^1,2 for the FRS Ion Catcher collaboration — ¹JLU Giessen, Germany — ²GSI, Darmstadt, Germany — ³TRIUMF, Vancouver, Canada

Mass and lifetime measurements of exotic nuclei yield key information for the understanding of nuclear structure and the nucleosynthesis. These measurements are subject to experimental boundary conditions such as beam intensity and production cross sections. Additionally, databases for nuclear properties of known and expected isotopes have thousands of entries, thus making a candidate search by hand practically impossible. Due to this reason, a database program has been developed which allows the import and combination of several databases such as NUBASE, ENSDF, and production yields or models. The program provides both common table tools as well as many physics related tools, for instance it is possible to calculate EPAX cross sections. To automate the program, a simple script language and a log-function have been implemented. The resulting output can be exported in different formats, including a direct re-import and visualisation in Nucleus Win. The findings of a candidate search have already been used for the preparation of different experiments, including an experiment with the FRS Ion Catcher at GSI in 2016.
