Scientific paper

Over the past 2.5 years the Browne-Buechner spectrograph at the Nuclear Science Laboratory (NSL) at the University of Notre Dame has been renovated and its system upgraded to enable operations in the gas-filled mode. In addition to this, a new position sensitive PPAC detector and Ionization counter were developed as the focal plane detector of this system. The upgrade enables operation of the magnet both in the standard as well as in the gas-filled mode for the measurement of specific nuclear reactions of interest in stellar nucleosynthesis. The presentation will focus on the upgrade work that has involved both graduate and undergraduate students as well as the first tests of the system using the separation of the ^58Fe-^58Ni isobars as a benchmark measurement. First results on ^40Ca(α, γ)^44Ti as well as the detection of ^36Cl using AMS in conjunction with the gas-filled technique at Notre Dame will also be presented.
