PhD students can stay at RIKEN 3 – 12 months
Daily allowance and accommodation paid by RIKEN
IPA program already succesfully applied for EURICA, 9 European students
Can easily increase number of students for AGATA@RIBF
At present beam time is scarce, but

RIBF is the world leading facility for in-flight production of exotic nuclei for next 5–10 years.
Experience to host external and NUSTAR experimental devices
EURICA, since 2011, e.g. 100Sn decay (M. Lewitowicz et al.)
MINOS, since 2014 AIDA, since 2014, test during SEASTAR campaign
NeuLAND, from 2015
RIBF offers ideal secondary beam energies of 100–250 MeV/u for AGATA
In-beam γ-ray spectroscopy at high energies is successfully applied at RIBF
Low background in knockout and inelastic scattering experiments
Absolute cross-section measurements above 100 MeV/u Spin assignments from momentum distribution
All spectrometers and ancillary detectors (PID, angle, vertex, etc.) ready to use
15 pnA of 238U average primary beam intensity achieved, up to 100 pnA maximum expected ina few years
Opportunity to perform unique experiments with AGATA
“standard” 2+1 , 4+1 , B(E2)↑ spectroscopy
Spectroscopy of low cross-section scattering: E3, M1 excitations, 2+2 Nuclei with high level density, line shapes
Spin assignments from momentum distribution
