Abstract

The SOLEROO ( sol enoidal e xotic r are is o t o pe) separator is under development for the production of light radioactive ion beams at the Australian National University. The separator is based on a single superconducting solenoid followed by two tracking detectors. Cross-section and beam purity measurements have been made to optimise the production of 6 He, 8 Li, 10 Be and 12 B beams. Having validated the trajectory simulation code SoliX, the optimal geometry for utilisation of the tracking detectors has also been explored.
