2022-11-15: GSI FRS-Ion-Catcher - LACCI built and commissionedThe laser ablation carbon cluster ion source (LACCI) for the MR-TOF-MS of the FRS-IC has been built and commissioned. It is capable of providing closely-spaced calibrant ions in the mass range up to ~300 u for highly accurate mass measurements of exotic nuclei (σm/m ~10-8) and systematic studies of the mass uncertainties with the MR-TOF-MS of the FRS Ion Catcher at GSI Darmstadt, Germany. This novel ion source with many newly developed advanced techniques，including 2D motion of the target, laser-spot/target monitoring system, and dedicated re-capture unit, will enhance the performance of the MR-TOF-MS in FRS Ion Catcher.https://www.uni-giessen.de/en/faculties/f07/departments/physics/institutes/experimentalphys/groups/content/news/gsi_lacci_buildhttps://www.uni-giessen.de/@@site-logo/logo.png
