Abstract
The direct transfer reaction is a powerful tool in nuclear spectroscopy because the single particle properties of populated energy levels can be studied through the measurement. Furthermore, the transfer reaction using radioactive heavy ion beams in inverse kinematics has become crucial for the study of nuclei far from stability. For the design of a detector system including a scattering chamber for the transfer reaction measurements, the calculations including relativistic kinematics, stopping power, and Gamow window need to be performed many times. To make these calculations easier, we developed a new toolkit written in the Java programming language.
