TULIP: A Target Ion Source for Short-Lived Ion

Marion MacCormick (FLUO) & Pascal Jardin (GANIL)

In this presentation the key points of the recently funded ANR TULIP project will be briefly described.  The presentation is specifically geared to a mixed public of both radioactive ion users and makers.  We will use the basic building blocks of this project to stimulate discussions for both the physics and technical future of the TULIP approach.

The key focus here is on the creation of unique radioactive ion beams for ambitious experiments at GANIL and aims to enhance the near-term nuclear physics research possibilities using SPIRAL1 beams at GANIL. Based on fusion-evaporation reactions, this project provides a real near-term possibility for physics in the neutron-deficient sector, at competitive production rates.

TULIP is an ANR funded project since October 2019 and will run for 4 years.
