Abstract
The aim of this paper is to report on the present status of the GAs cell based Laser ionization and separation Setup (GALS project) that is under construction at the Flerov Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions (FLNR) of JINR, Dubna. This project is directed on production of neutron-rich isotopes in the region of the magic N = 126 neutron number using multi-nucleon transfer reactions. The laser laboratory extension based on new TiSa lasers was performed, options of using a straight sextupole (SPIG) or an S-shaped quadrupole ion guides in the setup were compared based on the computer simulations, and the work on the rest of the GALS subsystems is being continued.
