Description
The TRIUMF rare beam facility ISAC is the premier North American ISOL system and a leader in low energy nuclear physics. It currently serves 18 state of the art experiments and contributes significantly to our current understanding. However, even more science output could be achieved with higher availability of rare beams. This is now being addressed with a new project: ARIEL (Advanced Rare IsotopE Laboratory), which will add an electron driven photo fission production, as well as a proton beam line for spallation, fragmentation, and fission. One of the experimental facilities at ISAC is TITAN, a multi-ion trap system for precision experiments; atomic masses and in-trap decay spectroscopy. In this talk I will give an overview of the nuclear physics program at TRIUMF, and show recent examples and highlights from TITAN, including neutron-halos, very neutron-rich Ca isotopes, studies in the so-called Island of Inversion, and investigations for double beta decay.
