The new SOLSTISE system vacuum pumps have been delivered and are being wired. However, lab access is still limited due to the rapidly worsening COVID-19
Due to the concerns regarding COVID-19 and to abide the State of Tennessee’s stay-at-home order, laboratory work on SOLSTISE has temporarily ceased. Design work is
SOLSTISE is a DOE-funded project to build a supersonic gas jet target inside of a solenoidal spectrometer for next-generation particle spectroscopy.

SOLSTISE (SOLenoid and Supersonic Target In Structure Experiments) is a DOE-funded project to combine the technologies from two state of the art devices for nuclear spectroscopy: HELIOS and JENSA.
By incorporating a gas jet target into a solenoidal spectrometer, energy and angle resolution can be improved and unwanted backgrounds reduced, allowing for next-generation particle spectroscopy for basic nuclear physics.
