Abstract

With the installation of the γ-ray spectrometer AGATA at the Laboratori Nazionali di Legnaro (LNL) of the Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN), the scientific activity with the Radioactive Ion Beam facility EXOTIC had to be temporarily suspended and the reaction chambers located at its final focal plane had to be removed. In this period of forced inactivity, we reorganized all the services, upgraded all control systems of the facility and developed a new event-by-event tracking system based on MicroChannelPlate (MCP) detectors. These interventions are preparing the ground for coupling EXOTIC and AGATA to perform experiments exploiting the unique features provided by both equipments.
