Title: Delayed neutron studies at isotope separators

Abstract

Experimental studies of delayed neutron precursors produced at on-line isotope separator facilities are briefly reviewed. These studies provide information on beta strength functions above the neutron binding energy and other nuclear structure properties for nuclides far from the line of beta stability. In addition, delayed neutron decay can be a unique signature for identifying new isotopes. Examples are given of recent experiments with both fission product and nonfission product precursors. Several experiments are proposed for delayed neutron precursors in the poorly known mass region of 20 to 85. Some preliminary ideas for an Element Selective Laser Ionization (ESLI) source are presented. 29 references, 23 figures.
