With the advent of accelerator facilities dedicated to the production of radioactive nuclei, experimenters had to develop new, efficient techniques that can measure observables with the available beam rates. In-flight separated beams offer large luminosity gains through the use of thick secondary targets when combined with the detection of γ-rays to indicate inelastic scattering. Here we review the status of Coulomb excitation at intermediate energies, a technique that allows for the measurement of transition rates in atomic nuclei with beam rates of a few particles per second. © 2009 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
