GEANIE is an array of 26 HpGe detectors used to study nuclear reaction dynamics and structure following reactions with high-energy neutrons, for both basic and applied research projects. Studies have included the measurement of (n,xn) partial cross sections as a function of for a variety of nuclei, particularly actinides. More recently, studies of n-induced fission-fragment distributions and nuclear structure in the actinide region have been started. A second beam line and experimental station (FIGARO) have been set up to complement and extend this program. Research conducted on this second beam line includes the use of conversion electron spectroscopy to explore nuclear structure, using the University of Pittsburgh ICEBall II array.
