Towards combining in‐beam γ‐ray and conversion electron spectroscopy

The SAGE spectrometer will combine a segmented Si‐detector with a Ge‐detector array aiming to take the simultaneous in‐beam γ‐ray and conversion electron spectroscopy to the next level. It will be coupled with the GREAT focal plane spectrometer and the RITU gas‐filled recoil separator at the accelerator laboratory of the University of Jyvaskyla, Finland. Its high efficiency and resolution will open the door to a new era of complete spectroscopy directed, amongst others, at the study of superheavy nuclei aiming to investigate the properties of the next spherical proton shell above Z = 82.
