Latest results on a SiC detector system for RIBs and possible physics cases

Radioactive Ion Beams (RIBs) hold significant potential in the fields of nuclear physics and medical applications, particularly in particle therapy. The main hindrance to use RIBs for both nuclear physics research and clinical applications lies in their complex production processes and the limitation of low beam intensities. Ongoing research projects are indeed underway in Europe and around the world with the aim of assessing the advantages of RIBs with high intensity. These research projects are focused on advancements in accelerator technology, targetry, and detector systems. Regarding these latter aspects, Silicon Carbide (SiC) detectors show notable promise in the fields of nuclear and medical physics due to their unique characteristics. This paper discusses recent results in the development of a detector system based on SiC technology. The detector system will also be used in conjunction with the FraISe (Fragment In-flight Separator) facility, which will be available in the near future at the Laboratori Nazionali del Sud of INFN (INFN-LNS) in Catania.
