Location:  Auditorium          

Speaker:   Fadi Ibrahim (IPN Orsay)

Title:     The ALTO facility for the production of rare nuclei

Abstract: The ALTO facility (Accélérateur Linéaire et Tandem d'Orsay) at Institut de Physique Nucléaire d'Orsay is under commissioning. The aim of this facility is to provide neutron rich isotopes to study nuclei far from the valley of stability. The radioactive isotopes are produced by photofission of 238U induced by the 50 MeV electrons produced by the linear accelerator and analyzed through the on line separator PARRNe. Additional beam lines are currently under construction.  Experimental data will be presented and compared to simulations. During our test for the commissioning of ALTO, a first experiment has been performed in the region of N=50 close to 78Ni. The first results will be presented.

Stimulants available 15 minutes before the talk.
