- We propose to install a storage ring at an ISOL-type radioactive beam facility for the first time. Specifically, we intend to setup the heavy-ion, low-energy ring TSR at the HIE-ISOLDE facility in CERN, Geneva. Such a facility will provide a capability for experiments with stored secondary beams that is unique in the world. The envisaged physics programme is rich and varied, spanning from investigations of nuclear ground-state properties and reaction studies of astrophysical relevance, to investigations with highly-charged ions and pure isomeric beams. The TSR might also be employed for removal of isobaric contaminants from stored ion beams and for systematic studies within the neutrino beam programme. In addition to experiments performed using beams recirculating within the ring, cooled beams can also be extracted and exploited by external spectrometers for high-precision measurements. The existing TSR, which is presently in operation at the Max-Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg, is well-suited and can be employed for this purpose. The physics cases as well as technical details of the existing ring facility and of the beam and infrastructure requirements at HIE-ISOLDE are discussed in the present technical design report.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Prospects of experimental studies of argon and chlorine isotopes located far beyond the proton dripline are studied by using systematics and cluster models. The deviations from the widespread systematics observed in Cl-28,Cl-29 and Ar-29,Ar-30 have been theoretically substantiated, and analogous deviations have been predicted for the lighter chlorine and argon isotopes. The limits of nuclear structure existence are predicted for Ar and Cl isotopic chains, with Ar-26 and Cl-25 found to be the lightest sufficiently long-living nuclear systems. By simultaneous measurements of protons and gamma rays following decays of such systems as well as their beta-delayed emission, an interesting synergy effect may be achieved, which is demonstrated by the example of Cl-30 and Ar-31 ground-state studies. Such a synergy effect may be provided by the new EXPERT setup (EXotic Particle Emission and Radioactivity by Tracking) being operated inside the fragment separator and spectrometer facility at GSI, Darmstadt.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The most remote isotope from the proton dripline (by 4 atomic mass units) has been observed: K-31. It is unbound with respect to three-proton (3p) emission, and its decays have been detected in flight by measuring the trajectories of all decay products using microstrip detectors. The 3p emission processes have been studied by the means of angular correlations of S-28 + 3p and the respective decay vertices. The energies of the previously unknown ground and excited states of K-31 have been determined. This provides its 3p separation energy value S-3p of -4.6(2) MeV. Upper half-life limits of 10 ps of the observed K-31 states have been derived from distributions of the measured decay vertices.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The level structure of the unbound nucleus N-11 has been studied by C-10+p elastic resonance scattering in inverse geometry with the LISE3 spectrometer at GANIL, using a C-10 beam with an energy of 9.0 MeV/ nucleon. An additional measurement was done at the A1200 spectrometer at MSU. The excitation function above the C-10+p threshold has been determined up to 5 MeV. A potential-model analysis revealed three resonance states at energies 1.27(-0.05)(+0.18) MeV (Gamma = 1.44 +/- 0.2 MeV), 2.01(-0.05)(+0.15) MeV (Gamma = 0.84 +/- 0.2 MeV), and 3.75 +/- 0.05 MeV (Gamma = 0.60 +/- 0.05 MeV) with the spin-parity assignments I-pi=1/2+,1/2,-,5/2+, respectively. Hence, N-11 is shown to have a ground state parity inversion completely analogous to its mirror partner Be-11. A narrow resonance in the excitation function at 4.33 +/- 0.05 MeV was also observed and assigned spin parity 3/2-.

- The proton-unbound argon and chlorine isotopes have been studied by measuring trajectories of their decay-in-flight products by using a tracking technique with microstrip detectors. The proton (1p) and two-proton (2p) emission processes have been detected in the measured angular correlations "heavy-fragment"+p and "heavy-fragment"+p+p, respectively. The ground states of the previously unknown isotopes Cl30 and Cl28 have been observed for the first time, providing the 1p-separation energies Sp of -0.48(2) and -1.60(8), MeV, respectively. The relevant systematics of 1p- and 2p-separation energies have been studied theoretically in the core+p and core+p+p cluster models. The first-time observed excited states of Ar31 allow one to infer the 2p-separation energy S2p of 6(34) keV for its ground state. The first-time observed state in Ar29 with S2p=-5.50(18) MeV can be identified as either a ground state or an excited state according to different systematics.

- Previously unknown isotopes Ar-30 and Cl-29 have been identified by measurement of the trajectories of their in-flight decay products S-28 + p + p and S-28 + p, respectively. The analysis of angular correlations of the fragments provided information on decay energies and the structure of the parent states. The ground states of Ar-30 and Cl-29 were found at 2.25(-0.10)(+0.15) and 1.8 +/- 0.1 MeV above the two-and one-proton thresholds, respectively. The lowest states in Ar-30 and Cl-29 point to a violation of isobaric symmetry in the structure of these unbound nuclei. The two-proton decay has been identified in a transition region between simultaneous two-proton and sequential proton emissions from the Ar-30 ground state, which is characterized by an interplay of three-body and two-body decay mechanisms. The first hint of a fine structure of the two-proton decay of Ar-30*(2(+)) has been obtained by detecting two decay branches into the ground and first-excited states of the S-28 fragment.

- The extremely neutron-rich system H7 was studied in the direct H2(He8,He3)H7 transfer reaction with a 26 AMeV secondary He8 beam [Bezbakh et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 124, 022502 (2020)PRLTAO0031-900710.1103/PhysRevLett.124.022502]. The missing mass spectrum and center-of-mass angular distributions of H7, as well as the momentum distribution of the H3 fragment in the H7 frame, were constructed. In addition, we carried out another experiment with the same beam but a modified setup, which was cross-checked by the study of the H2(Be10,He3)Li9 reaction. A solid experimental evidence is provided that two resonant states of H7 are located in its spectrum at 2.2(5) and 5.5(3)MeV relative to the H3+4n decay threshold. Also, there are indications that the resonant states at 7.5(3) and 11.0(3)MeV are present in the measured H7 spectrum. Based on the energy and angular distributions, obtained for the studied H2(He8,He3)H7 reaction, the weakly populated 2.2(5)-MeV peak is ascribed to the H7 ground state. It is highly plausible that the firmly ascertained 5.5(3)-MeV state is the 5/2+ member of the H7 excitation 5/2+-3/2+ doublet, built on the 2+ configuration of valence neutrons. The supposed 7.5-MeV state can be another member of this doublet, which could not be resolved in Bezbakh et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 124, 022502 (2020)PRLTAO0031-900710.1103/PhysRevLett.124.022502]. Consequently, the two doublet members appeared in the spectrum of H7 in the work mentioned above as a single broad 6.5-MeV peak.

- The extremely neutron-rich system H6 was studied in the direct H2(He8,He4)H6 transfer reaction with a 26A MeV secondary He8 beam. The measured missing mass spectrum shows a broad bump at ≈4-8 MeV above the H3+3n decay threshold. This bump can be interpreted as a broad resonant state in H6 at 6.8(5) MeV. The population cross section of such a presumably p-wave state (or it may be few overlapping states) in the energy range from 4 to 8 MeV is dσ/dωc.m.≃190-80+40μb/sr in the angular range 5°<θc.m.<16°. The obtained missing mass spectrum is practically free of H6 events below 3.5 MeV (dσ/dωc.m. 5μb/sr in the same angular range). The steep rise of the H6 missing mass spectrum at ≈3 MeV allows us to derive the lower limit for the possible resonant-state energy in H6 to be 4.5(3) MeV. According to the paring energy estimates, such a 4.5(3) MeV resonance is a realistic candidate for the H6 ground state (g.s.). The obtained results confirm that the decay mechanism of the H7 g.s. (located at 2.2 MeV above the H3+4n threshold) is the "true"(or simultaneous) 4n emission. The resonance energy profiles and the momentum distributions of fragments of the sequential H6→H5(g.s.)+n→H3+3n decay were analyzed by the theoretically updated direct four-body-decay and sequential-emission mechanisms. The measured momentum distributions of the H3 fragments in the H6 rest frame indicate very strong "dineutron-type"correlations in the H5 ground state decay.

- The extremely neutron-rich systems 7H, 6H were studied in the 2H(8He, 3He)7H and 2H(8He, 4He)6H proton and deuteron pickup reactions with a 26 AMeV secondary 8He beam produced at the new ACCULINNA-2 fragment separator. In addition, the same proton and deuteron pickup reactions were generated using the 42 AMeV 10Be beam, and the population of low-lying 9Li and 8Li states was measured in reactions 2H(10Be,3He)9Li and 2H(10Be,4He)8Li, respectively. The latter were used as reference measurements in order to check the setup calibration over the excitation energy of 7,6H and to determine the real experimental energy resolution which was compared with Monte Carlo calculations. The corresponding results obtained for the superheavy hydrogen systems 7H, 6H are presented and discussed. Typical excitation spectra of the 9Li and 8Li nuclei are also shown.
