model-independent determination of transition rates

Advantages Disadvantages∙ use of various reactions∙ access to higher-lying states∙ access to shorter (<1ps) lifetimes

∙ needs to measure at several distances∙ broad charge-state distributions∙ feeding effects (need g-g coincidence)

Example : 128Xe + Fe at 525MeVDetailed structure information is to be studied by (multiple) Coulomb excitation and lifetime measurements.

Higher beam energies (>5AMeV) increase cross sections(particularly for higher-lying states) and allow use of thick targets.
