Alto is an infrastructure for experimental nuclear physics in France that comprises both an on-line isotope-separation facility based on the photofission of uranium and a stableion beam facility based on a 14.5-MV tandem accelerator. The isotope-separation on-line section of Alto is dedicated to the production of neutron-rich radioactive ion beams (RIB) from the interaction of the γ-flux induced by a 50-MeV 10-µA electron beam in a uraniumcarbide target. It is dimensioned for 10 11 fissions per second. The RIB facility is exploited in alternating mode with the tandem-based section of Alto, capable of accelerating both light ions for nuclear astrophysics and heavy ions for γ-spectroscopy. The facility thereby offers the opportunity to deliver beams to a large range of physics programmes from nuclear to interdisciplinary physics. In this article, we present the Alto facility as well as some of the highlights and prospects of the experimental programme.

“…A common type of high resolution magnetic spectrometers is the split-pole designed by Enge [1], which is characterized by having two separate pole pieces magnetized by the same set of coils enabling second order aberrations correction and double focusing. The Enge spectrograph can be used to perform high resolution charged-particle spectroscopy using inelastic scattering, charge exchange, and transfer reaction measurements.…”

The Enge split-pole spectrograph at the Triangle Universities Nuclear Laboratory (TUNL) is the only spectrometer of this kind currently operational in North America for conducting charged-particle spectroscopy experiments using stable beams. This spectrograph was out of service for a relatively long period of time. However, it is now being re-commissioned and upgraded to perform high resolution charged-particle spectroscopy measurements, as well as particle-γ coincidence measurements to study various astrophysically significant reactions. This review discusses the current upgrades to the beamline, the detector system, and outlines near future experimental perspectives.
