Abstract
The setup described makes it possible to orient nuclei in a wide ranee of m ass numbers by using both hyperfine interaction and techniques of "brute fo rce." The facility contains a He-3/He-4 dilution refrigerator of a module d esign, a superconducting magnet, Ge(Li) detectors of gamma-radiation, and S i charged-particle detectors operating at liquid-helium temperature. The fa cility is intended for measuring angular anisotropy of alpha- and gamma-rad iations of oriented radioactive nuclei as well as for polarization experime nts on secondary accelerator beams.
