HIGH-SPIN ISOMERS IN NEUTRON-RICH NUCLEI STUDIED WITH THE TARDIS-ARRAY AT IGISOL

Abstract A 12 Compton-suppressed detector array TARDIS has been placed around the collection spot of the IGISOL separator, with the aim of studying decays of high-spin isomers in neutron-rich isotopes produced by fission. An experiment on 97 Y shows that the detection limit is improved by more than one order of magnitude with respect to previous measurements at research reactors with conventional detector setups.
