Radioactive ions in heavy-ion storage rings: Intersection of nuclear, atomic and astrophysics — •Yury A Litvinov — GSI Helmholtz Center for Heavy Ion Research GmbH, Planckstrasse 1, 64291 Darmstadt
Storage of freshly produced secondary particles in an ion trap or a storage ring is a straightforward way to achieve the most efficient use of these rare species. Heavy-ion storage rings are multi-purpose ma- chines with versatile capabilities for beam manipulations. The num- ber of physics cases possible to address is enormous. Following the introduction to storage rings, the focus of the tutorial will be on preci- sion experiments with highly-charged ions at the intersection of atomic physics, nuclear structure and astrophysics. We will mainly discuss the storage-ring mass spectrometry, which is complimentary to the one at the Penning traps, and exotic radioactive decays, which open up only in highly-charged ions.
Keywords: mass spectrometry; exotic decay modes; heavy-ion storage ring; stored charged particles
