• CHICO: Designed to exploit Gammasphere for study of quasi-binary reactions
• Coulomb excitation
• Single and multi-nucleon transfer reactions
• Deep inelastic reactions
• Fission
• Motivation: Exotic neutron-rich beam physics motivation:
• Explore the evolution of collectivity and shell structure with isospin.
• Deep inelastic and transfer reactions will extend range of neutron-rich nuclei.
• Pair transfer to probe neutron pairing correlations in neutron-rich nuclei
• Exploit isomeric beams to probe unusual shell configurations

Triple γ-γ-γ spectrum gated on the 377keV (18+→17+) plus 398keV (19+→18+) peaks of the K=16+ isomer band in 178Hf for Coulomb excitation of a 178Hf beam by a 208Pb target
• Clean well-resolved spectra• Peak to background ratio ~100:1• Peak areas up to several thousand counts

Advantages of CHICO for CARIBU research• Large solid angle:Study weak exotic beams or low cross-section processes
• Large angular coverage: High kinematic coincidence efficiency Large range of impact parameters
• Angular and time resolution: Mass, Q-value resolution; high selectivity
• Achieve maximum Doppler-corrected γ-ray resolution for Gammasphere:
• Identify γ-rays from each fragment
• Very high count-rate capability: > 100kHz
• Hardness to radiation damage: 242mAm target (1.6 mCi, 1 MHz α’s, 500 kHz x-rays)
• High background suppression: Can adjust threshold to suppress light ions (p, d, α, C) Kinematic coincidence requirement
• Minimal mass: Minimal γ-ray absorption and Compton scattering
• Low initial and operational costs: Only 80 channels of electronics for 4,200 pixels Operational costs negligible

Staging CHICO for CARIBU researchAdvantages:
• CHICO operates with Gammasphere both stand-alone or at the FMA
• Initial set up time is 1 week,
• Reliable and trouble-free operation during month-long campaigns
• Minimal maintenance and costs required during operation
• Weak exotic beams should eliminate radiation damage to the foils.
Concerns:
• Sensitive to pilot error when operating vacuum controls.
• Requires expert knowledge to handle and change thin foils• Will require an ATLAS in-house Chico expert to support the Rochester group if
long running periods are scheduled
