The construction of a Compton suppressed Germanium clover array (CAGRA) by a U.S.-Japan collaboration is on going. High-precision capabilities of existing devices at RCNP can be combined with ultra-high precision γ-decay measurements to gain access to observables at an unprecedented level of detail. Three experimental sites are foreseen: at the EN beam line, where beams of rare isotopes are...

The recent developments of technique in providing RI beams have been made many advances in radioactive isotope science. The RI beam facility (RIBF) has expanded the variety of nuclides. However, available beams are restricted to an energy region above 100 AMeV or stopped beams. The variety of reaction has not been necessarily expanded on this point. The deceleration of intense RI beams...

Gamma ray spectroscopy is a very usefull tool for
nuclear structure and nuclear physics in general.
The direct view inside the nucleus gives important information on
the nuclear properties.
Progress in detector technology allways resulted in new results in nuclear physics. For this reason the development of next generation HPGe detectors started.
The Advanced GAmma Tracking Array (AGATA)...

GRETINA is a first implementation of a gamma-ray spectrometer which
is capable of tracking gamma-rays through its active detector volume.
It consists of seven, four-crystal modules (6x6 segments). Each crystal is
individually encapsulated with all four crystals sharing a common cryostat.
The irregular, tapered hexagonal crystals pack into a spherical shell with the
seven modules...
