Popis: International audience; MINOS is a new apparatus dedicated to in-beam nuclear structure experiments with lowintensityexotic beams in inverse kinematics at intermediate energies above 150MeV/nucleon. The deviceis composed of a thick liquid-hydrogen target coupled to a compact time projection chamber (TPC) servingas a vertex tracker. Either used for in-beam gamma spectroscopy of bound excited states or invariant-massspectroscopy of unbound states, MINOS aims at improving the luminosity by a very significant factorcompared to standard solid-target material experiments while improving experimental resolutions.
