TIARA, designed to study direct reactions induced by radioactive beams in inverse kinematics is described here. The Transfer and Inelastic All-angle Reaction Array (TIARA) consists of 8 resistive charge division detectors forming an octagonal barrel around the target and a set of double-sided silicon-strip annular detectors positioned at each end of the barrel. The detector was coupled to the gamma-ray array EXOGAM and the spectrometer VAMOS at the GANIL Laboratory to demonstrate the potential of such an apparatus with radioactive beams. The N-14(d,p)N-15 reaction, well known in direct kinematics, has been carried out in inverse kinematics for that purpose. The observation of the N-15 ground state and excited states at 7.16 and 7.86 MeV is presented here as well as the comparison of the measured proton angular distributions with DWBA calculations. Transferred l-values are in very good agreement with both theoretical calculations and previous experimental results obtained in direct kinematics.", optnote="ISI:000276001800008", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=477), last updated on Thu, 01 Nov 2012 20:03:17 +0000", issn="0168-9002", doi="10.1016/j.nima.2010.01.009", opturl="http://lanl.arxiv.org/abs/0908.2938", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nima.2010.01.009", language="English" }
