SPECTROMETRIC FACILITY FOR STUDYING SHORT-LIVED NUCLIDES

The paper describes a multiparameter spectrometer built at the Laborat ory of Nuclear Problems, JINR, for studying alpha-, beta-, and gamma-r adiation due to decays of short-lived nuclides (T-1/2 greater than or equal to 1 sec) produced by the YaSNAPP-2 facility operating on line w ith a 660-MeV proton beam from the JINR phasotron. The spectrometer us es both semiconductor and fast scintillation detectors, which allow us to study the radiation from radioactive nuclides, their decay modes, the energies of alpha- and beta-decays, and the lifetimes of the nucle ar states. The spectrometer can be used in the on(off)-line analysis o f one- and multidimensional spectra.
