Abstract
REX-ISOLDE [1] is an experiment at ISOLDE/CERN with a twofold aim: (i) to demonstrate a novel efficient scheme for the acceleration of radio active ions from the online mass separator ISOLDE to energies around t he Coulomb barrier. (ii) to perform first nuclear physics experiments by studying the structure of the neutron-rich (N = 20, N = 28) nuclei by Coulomb excitation and neutron transfer reactions. An overview on t he different components of the radioactive beam accelerator is given w ith special emphasis on the separation possibilities and ion number ca pabilities of the system.
