Abstract

A new on-line isotope separator was constructed and used successfully for the study on short-lived isotopes at the Bevalac at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory. The isotopes were produced through projectile fragmentation processes of high energy heavy-ion reactions. Various isotopes were rigidity-separated by use of a beam line and, finally, the desired single isotope was range analyzed to stop in a catcher. A large number of β-emitting21F nuclei were successfully collected and the nuclear lifetime was determined by detecting β-rays.
