Abstract.

In recent years (1996-2001) the recoil-decay tagging technique has been employed with great success at the Department of Physics of the University of Jyväskylä. Various arrays of germanium detectors have been coupled to the RITU gas-filled separator in order to study nuclei far from stability. An overview of the physics studied with these arrays, along with discussion of technical development of the RITU separator, is presented. Even with a comparatively modest array of germanium detectors it has been possible to study nuclei produced with cross-sections as low as 200 nb.
