Penning trap mass measurements of rare isotopes produced by projectile fragmentation with LEBIT at NSCL
The Low-Energy Beam and Ion Trap facility LEBIT at the NSCL at MSU has demonstrated that rare isotopes produced by fast-beam fragmentation can be slowed down and prepared for precision experiments with low-ene...
