Abstract: Abstract: A new vacuum-mode recoil separator MARA (Mass Analysing Recoil Apparatus) is under design and construction at the Department of Physics in the University of Jyväskylä. The separator is intended to separate reaction products from the primary beam in mass region below . The ion-optical configuration of the separator will be QQQDEDM, where a magnetic quadrupole (Q) triplet is followed by an electrostatic deflector (DE) and a magnetic dipole (DM). The total length of MARA will be less than 7.0m and the first order resolving power more than 250 for a beam spot size of 2mm. In this contribution the main properties of MARA are given and results from simulations are shown. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
