Research Abstract |
By measuring the half-lives of neutron-rich radioactive nuclei with N=126, it is considered that it is possible to understand the process of nucleosynthesis of heavy elements by a rapid neutron-capture reaction in the cosmos. In order to understand the process, we have developed an argon gas-cell with laser ionization for producing an element- and mass-selected radioactive ion beam. The design of a gas cell was optimized by using a flow simulation. The basic property of the gas cell was investigated from the off-line test using a filament placed in the gas cell and from the on-line test using an accelerated beam at RIKEN facility. We have successfully produced an element- and mass-selected ion beam, whose extraction time of about 200 ms was faster than the gas cell produced so far. Owing to the gas cell, we can measure the half-lives of the radioactive nuclei with N=126 for understanding the element synthesis in the cosmos.
