LAND / R3B

The research activity of our group profits of the possibility to perform experiments both with stable and with rare-isotope beams at energies well above the Fermi energy.

Although our activity spans over different research fields, in the last years we are mostly devoted to study the collective multipole response of nuclei. Experiments with fast fragmentation beams utilizing the heavy-ion induced electromagnetic excitation process are a key tool to access the multipole response of nuclei. Due to experimental reasons, the dipole response is studied at most. 

One of the key question that we address is how the excitation spectra of nuclei evolve with increasing asymmetry with respect to the neutron-to-proton ratio

Our scientific activity is carried out in collaboration with many people from different institues. The collaboration is named after the experimental area where we are working: the LAND setup. The future upgrade of the LAND setup, compatible with the FAIR accelerator complex (the future evolution of the GSI) is called R3B.
