BETA-NMR FACILITY AT ISAC
The b-NMR facility is located in ISAC-I at TRIUMF. It is a user facility where researchers can request beamtime through the Life Sciences (LSPEC) or Molecular and Materials Sciences Experiments Evaluation Committee (MMS-EEC).
The facility has three dedicated spectrometers:
1. a low-field with a magnetic field range of 0 - 240 G,
2. a mid-field with fields 0 – 0.2 T,
3. and a high-field with a superconducting solenoid capable of fields up to 9 T.
Current spectrometer features:
· He flow cryostats for temperature control between 3.5 and 317 K
· Ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions (~10-10 Torr)
· Electrically isolated high-voltage platform (up to 30 kV) for decelerating the radioactive ion beam
· CCD cameras for imaging the beamspot
