Production of short lived radioactive beams of radium
Abstract
Short lived 212,213,214Ra isotopes have been produced at the TRIμP facility in inverse kinematics via the fusion-evaporation reaction 206Pb+12C at 8 MeV/u. Isotopes are separated from other reaction products online using the TRIμP magnetic separator. The energetic radium (Ra) isotopes at the exit of the separator were converted into low energy ions with a thermal ionizer. Ra isotopes have been identified by observing their α decay and life times.
