A new design of magnetic spectrometer, MAGNEX, is under construction for the INFN-LNS, Catania. It is primarily intended for use with the Tandem-accelerated radioactive beams from the EXCYT facility. Both projects are expected to be completed by early 2004. Considering the broad choice of both stable and radioactive beams that will be available at the LNS, the spectrometer provides new opportunities for, e.g., spectroscopy of weakly bound nuclei by direct reactions, reaction mechanisms with large isospin and nuclear astrophysics.
