Expanding RIB capabilities at the Cyclotron Institute: 3He-LIG production with an isobar separator LSTAR

A new 3He-driven IGISOL production station and mass separator have been designed to produce neutron-deficient low-mass iso-topes at the Cyclotron Institute for the TAMUTRAP facility. Finally, the LSTAR design has a mass resolution M/ΔM ≥ 3,000 to reject contaminants with > 95% efficiency.
