“…High intensity accelerators, targets withstanding those high beam intensities and, in particular, actinide targets [8], efficient in-flight separators and spectrometers, and highly efficient detectors with fast electronics are the essential ingredients for the success of the field. The new SPIRAL2 facility with the separator-spectrometer set-up S3 [6] presently under construction at the accelerator laboratory GANIL in Caen, France, will offer great perspectives for the field [7]. At this facility a number of ground breaking experiments are envisaged, including DSAS examining features like the single particle structure, deformation and the search for K-isomers for those exotic nuclear species.…”

“…[3,16]. The superconducting separator spectrometer (S 3 ) set-up [6] combined with the decay spectroscopy detection array SIR-IUS (Spectroscopy and Identification of Rare Isotopes Using S 3 ) in combination with the high intensity beams from SC LINAC will be one of the most powerful facilities for SHN/SHE research worldwide together with the SHE Factory presently under construction at JINR/FLNR. The community of scientists interested in exploiting the capabilities of the SC LINAC-S 3 facility for SHN/SHE research has over the years developed their envisaged research topics in various letters of intent.…”

After more than half a century of research addressing the synthesis and nuclear structure of superheavy nuclei (SHN) a boost for its progress is expected from the advent of new instrumentation. An order of magnitude in beam intensity increase is envisaged to be provided by new powerful accelerators like the new DC280 cyclotron at the SHE factory of FLNR/JINR or the superconducting linac at SPIRAL2 of GANIL. In addition new ion-optical installations like the separator-spectrometer set-up S3 with two complementary detection systems SIRIUS and LEB will provide a substantial sensitivity increase for classically pursued routes like decay spectroscopy after separation (DSAS), and alternative and complementary methods like high precision mass measurements and laser spectroscopy. Decay spectroscopy has proven in the past to be a powerful tool to study the low lying nuclear structure of heavy and superheavy nuclei. Single particle levels and other structure features likeK isomerism, being important in the fermium-nobelium region as well as for tracing deformation towards spherical shell stabilised SHN, have been investigated almost up to the limit posed by the sensitivity of present-day instrumentation. Precision mass measurements and laser spectroscopy will offer the possibility to study alternative features like atomic and nuclear binding energies, nuclear charge radii and quadrupolemoments.

Abstract. Laser spectroscopy of the heaviest elements provides high-precision data on their atomic and nuclear properties. For example, atomic level energies and ionization potentials allow us to probe the influence of relativistic effects on their atomic structure and to benchmark state-of-the-art atomic structure calculations. In addition, it offers an alternative route to determine nuclear properties like spins, magnetic moments and quadrupole moments in a nuclear model-independent way. Recently, a sensitive method based on resonant laser ionization has been applied to nobelium isotopes around N = 152 at GSI Darmstadt. In pioneering experiments, several atomic states have been identified extending the reach of laser spectroscopy beyond fermium. In this contribution, the main achievements and future perspectives are briefly summarized.

“…Former similar experiments performed either slow-ion/slow-ion [14][15][16] or fast-ion/plasma-discharge collisions [18][19][20] . To be able to carry out crossed-beam experiments at different facilities, including the S 3 beamline at GANIL 21,22 or storage rings such as CRYRING@ESR 23 located at the upcoming FAIR facility, a compact and versatile setup providing a pure ion beam of highly charged low energy ions is needed. To arXiv:1906.07428v2 [physics.atom-ph] 12 Aug 2019 fully enclose the high energy ion beam envelope, a beam spot size of not less than  mm in height is demanded.…”

The performance of a newly built omega type electrostatic analyzer designed to act as an in-line charge-state purification system for ions in the keV energy range is reported. The analyzer consists of a set of four consecutive electrostatic °concentric cylindrical electrodes enclosed by Matsuda electrodes. This setup was recently tested and validated using O 5+ , Ar 9+ and Xe 20+ ion beams at an energy of  qkeV at the ARIBE facility. A resolving power of . and a transmission of  % of the desired charge state are measured allowing a good purification of incoming ion beams with charge states up to 10+ and a fairly good purification for charge states at least up to 20+. In comparison with other in-line solutions such as Wien filter, our system has the advantage of being purely electrostatic and therefore lacking common drawbacks as for example hysteresis.
