Abstract
Abstract
A project for an upgrade of the Superconducting Cyclotron is underway at INFN-LNS. One of the goals of this project is the production of RIBs (Radioactive Ion Beams) of high intensity. To reach this purpose, a dedicated facility consisting of a new fragment separator FRAISE (FRAgment In-flight SEparator) is ongoing, exploiting primary beams with a power up to ≈ 2-3 kW. The high intensity achievable with FRAISE requires the use of appropriate diagnostics and tagging systems that can operate also in a strong radioactive environment. In this framework, a R&D program has been started to develop the FRAISE facility as well as the diagnostics and the tagging systems.
