The Fragment Mass Analyzer (FMA) is a recoil mass separator. It separates products of nuclear reactions from unreacted beams and disperses them according to their mass-to-charge state ratio (M/q).

The Canadian Penning Trap (CPT) is used to conduct precise mass measurements of nuclides available at the ATLAS facility. By measuring the cyclotron frequency of the ions, a precise determination of the mass can be made.

Argonne In-Flight Radioactive Ion Separator (RAISOR), a system of selecting and purifying radioactive ion beams (RIB) created via the in-flight process, consists of a magnetic chicane separator and an RF sweeper.

AGFA is a state-of-the-art gas-filled separator at ATLAS, which can be used for studies of heavy and superheavy nuclei as well as to prepare exotic radioactive beams for mass measurements and laser spectroscopy.

High-resolution images and real-time data from world-renowned national user facilities and research centers set Argonne apart.

Argonne’s data-driven insights into processes and materials informs manufacturing and commercialization decisions that advance U.S. competitiveness.

Argonne’s expertise in innovative materials and industrial process development helps transform cutting-edge discoveries into commercial technologies.

The Electron and X-ray Microscopy Group in the Center for Nanoscale Materials (CNM) operates the Hard X-ray Nanoprobe beamline at Sector 26 of Argonne’s Advanced Photon Source (APS). Materials characterization includes X-ray ptychography and microscopy.

Specialized smart tips and topographic filters are used to fully realize high spatial resolution and high chemical sensitivity imaging with synchrotron X-ray scanning tunneling microscopy.

The Center for Nanoscale Materials develops and applies machine learning and data science approaches for large-scale atomistic simulations and characterization of nanoscale systems. Also available is high performance computing.
