Correlation chart, coupling constants

Undoubtedly the Chalk River ISOL will be used, as others are, in the identification and spectroscopy of exotic nuclei. The nuclear chart in figure 5 illustrates the scope for such studies. However, the extreme purity of isotopes separated by our ISOL has been essential in the past to precision studies of the weak interaction, in one case the lifetimes of superallowed 0+ 0+ transitions [K.OS83], in another 8-v-a triple correlation coefficients in the decay of 2( Na [CLI83] both yielded measurements of the weak vector coupling constant. These types of measurements will be extended to other nuclei, since they exploit the best qualities of the accelerator and separator.
