✦ Synopsis
The recent commissioning of the experimental program MISTRAL (Mass Measurements at ISolde using a Transmission and Radiofrequency spectrometer on Line) brought mass measurements of high precision performed on sodium and magnesium isotopes. The shortest half-life of an isotope measured with MISTRAL was 30.5 ms ( 28 Na). Though this first period of data taking was dedicated to the exploration of MISTRAL performances it has allowed us to reduce the uncertainty in the mass of the 28-30 Na isotope by almost one order of magnitude. 2002 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
