The Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility (HRIBF) at Oak Ridge is the first ISOL-type facility to provide beams of accelerated radioactive fission products. To generate these beams, products of fission induced by proton bombardment of a uranium carbide target are ionized, charge-exchanged in Cs vapor, and injected into the HRIBF tandem. Using a single stripper foil in the terminal, they can be accelerated to about 3 MeV per nucleon, ideal for Coulomb Excitation studies. Alternatively, they can be accelerated to energies above the Coulomb barrier by means of double-stripping, at the expense of a factor of about five in lost beam intensity. This paper reports on recent experiments using neutron-rich radioactive ion beams (RIBs) from the HRIBF facility. They have performed Coulomb excitation measurements of B(E2; 0{sup +} {yields} 2{sup +}) in {sup 126,128}Sn and {sup 132,134,136}Te, neutron transfer to single-particle states in {sup 135}Te, and fusion-evaporation reactions on light targets to study evaporation residues with {gamma}-{gamma}-recoil coincidence spectroscopy.
