“…1. The coupled-cyclotron method is used to produce and post-accelerate the radioactive ion beams: the first cyclotron, CYCLONE 30, which is a 30 MeV proton accelerator, developed for medical purposes [4], produces the desired unstable isotope in suitable targets. Beam intensities up to 300 µA are used to irradiate the production target.…”

“…Transfer reactions were performed on 12 C [51], 1 H [52] and 4 He targets [53,54]. All experiments employed the LEDA array; the former two focused on the study of the reaction mechanism, while the latter also investigated the importance of the transfer in relation to the 6 He configuration.…”

“…All experiments employed the LEDA array; the former two focused on the study of the reaction mechanism, while the latter also investigated the importance of the transfer in relation to the 6 He configuration. The use of 4 He as a target had several consequences. Because of the symmetry of the system, the elastic scattering and the transfer of two neutrons would contribute to the same exit dσ/dΩ (mb/sr) 4 He( 6 He, 6 He) 4 He E c.m.…”

“…For this analysis the data in the range c:m: 70 and 110 , where the effects of the experimental acceptances are reduced, were used. From the simulations it was determined that the efficiency for detecting, in coincidence, the 6 He 4 He pairs is 1.37(0.07)%. This compares with 7.2% of the fraction of the P 2 4 Legendre polynomial which lies within the same quence of the 6 spectroscopic factors known to date).…”

Abstract.The first beam of post-accelerated radioactive ions was realized in 1989 at the Louvainla-Neuve research facility. The method employed two coupled cyclotrons to produce, separate and re-accelerate the species of interest. Several technological challenges were solved in the process, to obtain pure and intense beams for use in nuclear physics research. Similarly, new techniques were developed and refined for the measurement of the nuclear reactions induced by the radioactive beams. The available energy range made the facility particularly suited for nuclear astrophysics studies, and important results were obtained in the determination of stellar reaction rates using beams of 7 Be, 13 N, 18 F, 18,19 Ne. A beam of 6 He ions was extensively used in studies of the nuclear structure (halos, molecular states) and dynamics (the reaction process at energies around the potential barrier).
