| contents | The antiProton Unstable Matter Annihilation experiment (PUMA) at CERN aims to study the nucleonic composition in the matter density tail of stable and radioactive nuclei using low-energy antiprotons. Since there is no facility in which both low-energy antiprotons and radioactive nuclei can be produced, the experimental realization with exotic nuclei requires the transportation of the antiprotons from the Extra Low ENergy Antiproton (ELENA) facility to the nearby located Isotope mass Separator On-Line DEvice (ISOLDE). For tests and first applications of the proposed experimental technique to stable isotopes at ELENA, a dedicated offline ion source beamline was developed that will provide isotopically pure, cooled and bunched ion beams with intensities of more than $10^4$ ions per bunch while maintaining a vacuum of better than $5\times 10^{-10}$ mbar at the handover point. This offline ion source beamline is characterized and its capabilities are demonstrated using the example of stable krypton isotopes. |
