The MoNA-LISA research program at NSCL and FRIB

ORAL

Abstract

The Modular Neutron Array/Large multi-Institutional Scintillator Array (MoNA-LISA) has been used in nuclear physics experiments to investigate the nuclear structure of neutron-unbound states at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory of Michigan State University since 2003. While most experiments study neutron-unbound states, other types of experiments have been performed and are being planned as well. Part of this presentation will give an overview of the types of measurements that the MoNA Collaboration has done, in terms of physics and instrumentation. The other part will look into the future setup and possible upgrades of MoNA-LISA at NSCL, where this neutron detector array will move to a different vault, and contribute to the base equipment for the High Rigidity Spectrometer of the upcoming Facility for Rare Isotope Beams.
