Abstract

Gas catchers are widely used for slowing down energetic ions in order to prepare them for precision mass measurements. Impurities in the gas can affect the extraction efficiency from the gas catcher. However, CISe aims to make use of this effect and explore the potential of chemical reactions inside a gas catcher by investigating chemical isobaric separation (CISe) techniques. The aim is to use this technique to measure the mass of $^{100}$Sn with high precision. $^{100}$Sn can be produced by a fusion evaporation reaction that also produces a large amount of unwanted isobaric by-products such as $^{100}$Ag, $^{100}$Cd and $^{100}$In. When mass measurements on $^{100}$Sn are to be performed, it needs to be separated from these by-products. In order to develop a suited chemical system, a gas catcher is built where stable isotopes of the ions of interest can be produced by laser ablation. The ions can be identified by a qToF mass spectrometer that is coupled to the system. For this thesis, experiments on the production and transmission of the ions are performed and discussed.
