Abstract
A project has been realized to link the CAMEL recoil mass spectrometer to the GASP gamma-spectrometer in order to perform high resolution an d efficiency gamma-recoil coincidence measurements. To preserve high f lexibility and autonomy in the operation of the two complex apparatus a rough factor two of reduction in the overall heavy ion transmission was accepted in designing the optics of the particle transport from th e GASP center to the CAMEL focal plane. The coupled configuration has been tested with the fusion reaction Ni-58 (E = 212 MeV) + Ni-64, Obta ining a mass resolution of 1/300 and efficiency between similar to 11% and similar to 15% for different evaporation products.
