Abstract / Description of output

A multiple-reflection time-of-flight mass spectrometer (MR-TOF-MS) has been installed and integrated into the TITAN experiment at TRIUMF. The MR-TOF-MS extends the capabilities and improves the performance of the TITAN experiment, for instance it provides fast isobar separation, short measurement cycles, yield measurements and broad-band beam diagnosis, and enhanced rate capabilities and dynamic range. Thereby, even more exotic nuclides become accessible at TITAN for experiments. Such improved capabilities of TITAN have been used in first experiments to investigate the sub-shell closure of neutron-rich nuclides at N = 32 and the r-process nucleo-synthesis for masses at A ∼ 85. The vacuum system, electronics and data-acquisition hardware and software have been recently upgraded. For the first time an isomeric state has been measured with TITAN′s MR-TOF-MS, 84mRb (excitation energy: 464 keV). The accurate measurement of excitation energies of low-lying isomeric states is possible due to the high mass resolving power of TITAN′s MR-TOF-MS and a specialized data-analysis procedure.
