“…The next experiments of the HypHI collaboration will then proceed at the future GSI Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR). The GSI accelerator facility provides a large variety of ion beams: stable beams from proton to uranium, thanks to the 18-Tm heavy-ion synchrotron (SIS18) [6,7], and exotic beams via the fragment separator (FRS) [8,9]. Ion beams with a kinetic energy up to 2AGeV for A/Z = 2 nuclei can be provided by the current SIS18 synchrotron.…”

After the demonstration of the feasibility of hypernuclear spectroscopy with heavy-ion beams, the HypHI Collaboration will next focus on the study of proton-and neutron-rich hypernuclei. The use of a fragment separator for the production and separation of rare isotope beams is a crucial aspect to producing hypernuclei far from the stability line. Precise spectroscopy of exotic hypernuclei is planned to be carried out at the GSI and later at the FAIR facility with the FRS and Super-FRS fragment separators. A systematic study and an optimization analysis were performed in order to determine optimal experimental conditions for producing hypernuclei with high isospin. The optimal conditions are obtained based on theoretical models for the heavy-ion induced reaction and hypernuclei production. Experimental efficiencies for the production of exotic secondary beams were also taken into account via Monte Carlo simulations of the fragment separator. The developed methodology is presented to deduce the expected yields of 8 Λ Be and subsequently other proton-rich and neutron-rich hypernuclei.

Abstract. Access to stored and cooled highly-charged radionuclides offers unprecedented opportunities to perform high-precision investigations of their decays. Since the few-electron ions, e.g. hydrogen-or helium-like ions, are quantum mechanical systems with clear electronic ground state configurations, the decay studies of such ions are performed under well-defined conditions and allow for addressing fundamental aspects of the decay process. Presented here is a compact review of the relevant experiments conducted at the Experimental Storage Ring ESR of GSI. A particular emphasis is given to the investigations of the two-body beta decay, namely the bound-state β-decay and its time-mirrored counterpart, orbital electron-capture.

“…The ion beams were delivered from the heavy ion synchrotron SIS 18 [7] with initial kinetic energy of 300 MeV/u. Different particle intensities, ranging from 10 to 10 particles per pulse, were applied within about 0.3 s, and with a 0.25 Hz repetition rate.…”

The imaging properties of various scintillation screens were investigated for ion beams extracted from the heavy ion synchrotron SIS 18 at GSI. Different ion beams such as C, Ne, Ar, Ta and U with initial kinetic energy of about 300 MeV/u were applied to various scintillation screens with particle fluxes ranging from 10 to 10 particles per pulse typically within 0.3 s pulse length. The scintillation process was observed with a digital Charge Coupled Device (CCD) camera. The performed study compares the light output, the beam profiles, and the image deformation of various scintillating screens for different ion beams. The light output scales linearly with respect to the ion beam flux over five orders of magnitude for the sensitive scintillation screens and ceramics like Al O , Al O :Cr. The highest light output was observed for CsI:Tl, and the lowest was recorded for Herasil. At higher beam intensities, non linear behavior of light output was observed for Mg and Y doped ZrO samples. The recorded beam profiles showed differences in width up to 50%, depending on the screen material.Index Terms-Ion irradiation, ion beam profile, particle beam instrumentation, scintillation devices, scintillation light yield, transverse profile.
