Description
The solenoidal-spectrometer technique was developed at Argonne over 15 years ago and realized in the form of HELIOS; successful programs have since been established at ISOLDE with the ISS and at FRIB with SOLARIS. I will highlight a few recent developments and results, as well as possible future directions for this technique. An overarching output of the solenoidal-spectrometer programs at Argonne, CERN, and FRIB has been the determination of single-particle energies in weakly bound nuclei across the chart of nuclides, revealing an emerging picture of how structure evolves towards the particle threshold.
