Status of LAMPS at RAON.

A new radioactive ion-beam accelerator facility, RAON, is under construction in Korea. Among the seven experimental systems being built, the Large Acceptance Multi-Purpose Spectrometer (LAMPS) in the high-energy experimental hall is the versatile detector system for nuclear physics. Its primary goal is to study the nuclear equation of state (EoS) and the symmetry energy of the compressed nuclear matter, which should be essential to understand the effective nuclear interactions and structure of the astrophysical objects like neutron stars. The basic LAMPS system consists of the beam diagnostic elements such as the starting counters and beam drift chambers, the time-projection chamber, the barrel and forward time-of-flight systems, the forward neutron detector array, and the superconducting solenoid magnet. In this paper the overview of the present status of each detector component for LAMPS will be given with some prospects. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
