Heavy-ion storage rings present a novel approach to studying nuclear reactions for astrophysics that have so far resisted traditional methods. In this paper, we report the first nuclear reactions studied in a ring at sub-MeV centre-of-mass energies. This is a major advance in nuclear reaction measurements…
Synopsis CRYRING was moved from Stockholm to Darmstadt, modernized and integrated into the GSI/FAIR beamline topology behind ESR. As CRYRING@ESR, it will receive and store heavy, highly charged ions from all species the present accelerator chain is capable of producing. An extensive research program…
The LIBELLE experiment performed at the experimental storage ring (ESR) at the GSI Helmholtz Center in Darmstadt aims for the determination of the ground state hyperfine (HFS) transitions and lifetimes in hydrogen-like ( 209 Bi 82+ ) and lithium-like ( 209 Bi 80+ ) bismuth. The study of HFS transitions…
