Nitschke, J M

A brief overview of the physics at a proposed radioactive beam facility or ISOSPIN LABORATORY is presented. Its impact on future directions in nuclear structure, nuclei far from stability, reaction physics, nuclear astrophysics, and several applied fields is pointed out. Of particular interest are neutron rich beams. Radioactive beams with energies on the order of {approximately}10 MeV/nucleon or less are emphasized rather than the more energetic beams obtainable through projectile fragmentation. A concept of a high-intensity radioactive beam facility based on the post-acceleration of radioactive ions from an isotope-separator linked to a high-current, high-energy, light ion accelerator is discussed. 21 refs., 1 figs.
