Abstract
Reactions with a heavy projectile incident on a light target can be used for the efficient in-flight production of secondary radioactive beams. An overview of this technique is given using data on 17F beams produced via the p(17O, 17F)n and d(16O, 17F)n reactions. With primary 16,17O beam currents of 100 pnA, intensities of up to 2×106 17F/s on target were achieved. Using this beam, the p(17F, α) 14O reaction was measured.
