Developments in spectrometers for radioactive ion beams Original Research Article

Severe limitations might reduce the potentiality expected from the use of radioactive ion beams if R&D efforts are not done. The design of the future spectrometers intended to be used with these beams integrates new difficulties arising from the beam characteristics. In this talk the performances expected from this new generation of detectors and the new ideas in large efficiency and large acceptance spectrometers will be briefly described.
