Atomic mass measurements open a wide field for nuclear science, including the understanding of the nuclear force, which is responsibly for holding atoms together, or making them fall apart (like in a decay). TITAN is currently one of the most precise and fastest mass measurement systems in the World. Moreover, it is one of only a few coupled to so-called radioactive beam facilities, where nuclei with very unusual properties can be synthesized. However, the production process also lead often to the unintentional generation of similar nuclei, which effect then the measurement negatively, as unambiguous identifications become cumbersome. Ideally, the experiments are carried out on isolated nuclei, one at a time.

原子质量测量为核科学开辟了广阔的领域，包括对核力的理解，核力负责将原子聚集在一起，或使它们分崩离析(就像衰变)。泰坦是目前世界上最精确和最快的质量测量系统之一。此外，它是少数几个与所谓的放射性束流设施相连的设施之一，在那里可以合成具有非常不寻常性质的原子核。然而，生产过程也经常导致无意中产生类似的核，这对随后的测量产生了负面影响，因为明确的识别变得繁琐。理想情况下，实验是在孤立的原子核上进行的，一次一个。
