Abstract
Short lived (212,213,214)Ra isotopes have been produced at the TRI mu P facility in inverse kinematics via the fusion-evaporation reaction (206)Pb + (12)C at 8 MeV/u. Isotopes are separated from other reaction products online using the TRI mu P magnetic separator. The energetic radium (Ra) isotopes at the exit of the separator were converted into low-energy ions with a thermal ionizer. Ra isotopes have been identified by observing their a decay and half-lifes. An improved half-life of (213)Ra has been measured to be 162.0 +/- 1.7 s. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
