Abstract
We have identified the doubly-magic N = Z nucleus Sn-100 by using the method of high-energy projectile fragmentation of a Xe-124 beam in con nection with the fragment separator FRS at GSI. Despite a very low pro duction cross section of only 11 +/- 4 pb, we report on first results from the investigation of correlated beta-decays after the implantatio n of a total of seven nuclei into a segmented stack of silicon detecto rs. We will discuss future perspectives of a more precise determinatio n of the GT-hindrance factor for the unique Sn-100 beta-decay using th e same method.
