The measurement of low energy fusion reactions of importance to nuclear astrophysics scenarios are a prime objective of the physics program of the new ISAC facility, located at TRIUMF in Vancouver, Canada. Intense radioactive beams of 19Ne, 14,15O, 20,21Na, 17,18F and other low Z species with energies in the range of 0.15 to 1.5 MeV/mass unit will be available to measure cross sections and resonance strengths of alpha and proton induced reactions. An important component of the experimental configuration will be a new Reaction Products Detection Facility (RPDF) consisting of a windowless gas target, surrounded by a gamma array, while the recoils are separated from the intense radioactive beam using a Recoil Mass Spectrometer (RMS). The RMS will be based on a Wien filter. The recoiling reaction products will then be detected using either a Si μ-strip array or a gas filled detector. Using these devices along with coincidence requirements and time of flight conditions a background reduction factor of the order of 10+15 is the present goal.
