Summary
The project aims to complete the construction of the novel MARA Low-Energy Branch (MARA-LEB) radioactive ion beam facility at JYFL-ACCLAB. MARA-LEB will, for the first time, enable the study of nuclear properties of proton-rich and heavy nuclei using a combined spectroscopic approach. State-of-the-art experimental techniques including high-resolution laser spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and nuclear decay spectroscopy will be applied, providing a detailed understanding of exotic nuclear-structure phenomena.
The unique capabilities of the MARA-LEB facility will mean that nuclei from a large section of the chart of nuclides will be accessible, allowing a broad range of nuclear properties to be investigated. The new research opportunities provided by MARA-LEB will attract new users to JYFL-ACCLAB while expanding the portfolio of tools, techniques, and science opportunities for existing users.
