Abstract :
A setup for measuring cross-sections of evaporation residues produced in the collision of two heavy ions is described. The system, which detects all reaction products in a narrow angular range around the beam direction, is designed to work best with low-intensity beams ( ⩽ 10 5 ions / s ) and can be highly efficient for reactions studied in inverse kinematic conditions, i.e., heavy-mass beam on lighter-mass targets. The system as presented here has been optimized to study evaporation residues from reactions induced by radioactive ion beams with charges near Z ∼ 50 and energies near 4 MeV/nucleon. Continuous sampling of the beam velocity, energy loss and position allow for the measurement of accurate evaporation residue cross-sections also in situations where the beam contains a mixture nuclides.
