Description
MUGAST [1] is a state-of-the-art silicon array combining trapezoidal and square shaped double-sided silicon strip detectors (DSSD) to four MUST2 [2] telescopes. Coupled to a gamma-ray spectrometer, the excellent angular coverage and compacity of the MUGAST array make it an ideal tool for the study of transfer reactions. It is a first step toward the development of the new generation of silicon arrays using PSA for particle identification, such as the future GRIT array [3] developped by our collaboration.
In recent years, MUGAST has been widely used at GANIL. First with the AGATA gamma-ray spectrometer and the VAMOS large acceptance spectrometer for the study of ISOL beams from the SPIRAL1 facility. It is now coupled to the EXOGAM gamma-ray spectrometer and to a new zero degree detection system at the end of the LISE fragmentation beamline.
In this talk, a summary of previous results from the 2019-2021 MUGAST-VAMOS- AGATA campaign will be presented, followed by a description of the newly installed experimental setup at LISE, the opportunities it opens up and its performance.
