Welcome to the webpage of DRAGON, the Detector of Recoils And Gammas Of Nuclear reactions. Located in the ISAC facility at TRIUMF in Vancouver, British Columbia, DRAGON is an apparatus designed to measure the rates of nuclear reactions important in astrophysics. Of particular interest are the reactions that made the elements around us; the nucleosynthesis reactions which occur in the explosive environments of novae, supernovae and x-ray bursters.
