Abstract
The Advanced Rare Isotope Laboratory (ARIEL) will expand the scientific capabilities of TRIUMF’s rare isotope program by providing more exotic isotope species with very high intensities and by adding two production targets that will provide beams in parallel to the existing ISAC target station. Together, these three stations will fully enable the exploitation of the numerous existing experimental facilities at ISAC, including experimental facilities for medical isotope research, nuclear astrophysics, material studies, fundamental nuclear studies, and searches beyond the standard model. This article summarizes the science reach of ARIEL and describes the facility.
