Nuclei separated by LISE3 achromatic spectrometer at GANIL, and identified by three consecutive Si detectors where two were used for energy loss and tof measurements while the third was used to determine their residual energies. 2005GaZR (thesis) determined T_1/2 from correlations between implanted nuclei and β decay. Half-lives determined by fitting procedure involving five parameters: half-lives of mother, daughter and grand-daughter nuclei, β-efficiency and background rate.

1992We04: Produced by fragmentation of a 500 MeV/nucleon ⁸⁶Kr beam on a Be target. Isotope identification by the fragment separator FRS at GSI in combination with tof and energy-loss measurements. α total of 190 counts were assigned to ⁶⁹Co corresponding to cross section of 0.49 microbarns with an uncertainty of 50%.

1991Be33 (also 1993BeZM): Identified from ²³⁹Pu(n_thermal,f) with the recoil spectrometer LOHENGRIN. Measured T_1/2 from time correlations between identified fragments and the β particles.

1985Gu14: Produced by fragmentation of ⁸⁶Kr beam on thick targets of Ti and Ta at 33 MeV. Separated by LISE triple focusing analyzer at GANIL. Identified through tof and ΔE-E measurements. Mass histograms of the production of neutron-rich isotopes of Co displayed shows a a peak corresponding to ⁶⁹Co.
