Abstract :
The absence of time structure and the excellent beam and beam transport properties of tandem electrostatic accelerators make them an attractive choice for the acceleration of a large class of radioactive ion species produced with the ISOL technique. In this paper, considerations on the use of the Holifield facility 25-MV tandem accelerator in the ORNL Radioactive Ion Beam Facility now under construction will be presented. Preliminary beam parameter measurements which suggest that the 25-MV tandem accelerator can be used as an effective separator of isobaric contaminant beams will also be presented and discussed
