Abstract :
Techniques have been developed for on-line collection and transfer to a measurement cell of rare noble gas isotopes. A low-energy isotope separator beam is stopped in a foil. After collection, the foil is heated, and the noble gas atoms are cryopumped to a cold finger and then transferred with a buffer gas to a measurement cell. This has been tested with 120Xe produced from a 120Cs beam at the TRIUMF ISAC facility, and greater than 40% efficiency for transfer from the foil to the cell has been demonstrated. The technique will be used for electric dipole moment measurements with radon isotopes and may also be useful for other measurements with gaseous targets including laser spectroscopy.
