Description

Since 2012, the ROSPHERE spectrometer is the main instrument to perform gamma-ray spectroscopy at the Bucharest TANDEM. The flexible configurations of ROSPHERE allows to perform lifetime measurements for excited nuclear states using the RDDS, DSAM and fast-timing methods, thus providing a niche thematic for the studies performed here. A second niche was the use of transfer reactions induced by heavy ions as a way to populate and study selectively specific states in the residual nuclei.

Recently, a new high energy configuration of ROSPHERE was introduced, making use of the large volume LaBr3:Ce and CeBr3 detectors from ELIGANT instrument of the Extreme Light Infrastructure – Nuclear physics (ELI-NP) facility to perform gamma-ray spectroscopy studies with high efficiency and good resolution in an energy range up to 15 MeV.

Recent results from the 2022 experimental campaign will be shown with emphasis on the new opportunities available at the ROSPHERE spectrometer.
