Title:	The LPCTrap facility at GANIL
Abstract:	The LPCTrap facility coupled to the low-energy beam line LIRAT of the SPIRAL source at GANIL comprises a transparent Paul trap designed to perform in-trap decay experiments. Presently, efforts are oriented to the precise experimental determination of the beta-neutrino angular correlation coefficient in 6He decay. The geometry of the trap enables to detect in coincidence the beta particles and the recoil ions with a high solid angle. The positions and energies of the particles are measured, allowing a full reconstruction of the kinematics and a proper event selection. During the first data taking, up to 10^5 decay coincidences were already recorded. In this contribution, the status of the experiment will be presented including data analysis and technical improvements of the set-up.
