Motivation
Simulated exemplary experiments
With the Radioactive Ion Beam Factory (RIBF) at RIKEN being on the cusp to deliver the worldʼs most intense RI beams at energies of several hundred MeV/u, a new γ-ray detection array is required to exploit the new experimental possibilities coming along with it. The material LaBr3(Ce) possesses an unprecedentedly high intrinsic energy resolution for scintillators of 2 % (FWHM) at 1332.5 keV and an excellent time resolution below 500 ps and is therefore well suited for high-resolution in-beam γ-ray experiments at relativistic energies. To minimize Doppler effects, the total array will comprise of up to one thousand individual crystals. The array will be placed around the secondary target area of the large acceptance fragment separator BigRIPS. Alternatively, the array can be used in a different configuration for stopped beam, delayed γ-ray decay experiments.
