The program LISE++ is designed to predict the intensity and purity of secondary ion beams for experiments using radioactive beams produced by In-flight separators. The LISE++ code also facilitates tuning experiments where its results can be quickly compared to on-line data.
Description
The LISE++ package includes configuration files for most of the existing fragment and recoil separators (see In-flight separators). Projectile fragmentation, fusion–evaporation, fusion–fission, Coulomb fission, abrasion–fission and two body nuclear reactions models are included in this program and can be used as the production reaction mechanism to simulate experiments at beam energies above the Coulomb barrier.
The LISE++ program contains more features and options than those described in the documentation at the official site. You are strongly encouraged to experiment with them and see the effects they have on the results. A very large amount of physics is incorporated in this program, from projectile fragmentation, fission and other reaction mechanism models, cross section systematics, electron stripping models, energy loss models to beam optics, just to list a few. All the references for the calculations are directly accessible within the program itself (see the various option windows) and you are encouraged to consult them for detailed information.
Application
The LISE++ name is borrowed from the well known evolution of the C programming language, and is meant to indicate that the program is no longer limited to a fixed configuration like it was in the original “LISE” program, but can be configured to match any type of device or add to an existing device using the concept of blocks.

The program is constantly expanding and evolving using the feedback of users around the world.
