Recent Highlights of the ISOLDE Facility
نویسنده
چکیده
The on-line isotope mass separator ISOLDE is the radioactive beam facility of CERN. Its objective is the production and research of nuclei far from stability. Exotic nuclei of most chemical elements are available for the study of nuclear structure, nuclear astrophysics, fundamental symmetries and atomic physics, and for applications in condensed-matter and life sciences. A description of the facility, some recent results and future plans are presented here.

The ISOLDE Facility: recent highlights and the HIE- ISOLDE project
The ISOLDE facility at CERN has as objective the production, study and research of nuclei far from stability. The facility provides low energy radioactive beams and post-accelerated beams. In the last 45 years the ISOLDE facility has gathered unique expertise in research with radioactive beams. Over 700 isotopes of more than 70 elements have been used in a wide range of research domains, includ...

متن کاملRejuvenation of the Controls of the Cern Isolde Facility Using Industrial Components
In the context of the general consolidation of the CERN ISOLDE facility, a project has been started to upgrade the ISOLDE control system. We describe the new ISOLDE control system, emphasizing the systematic use of industrial components such as PLCs and field buses, their integration with the existing, VME based, CERN PS control system and their potential applicability to both existing and new ...
متن کاملThe Beam Observation System of the Isolde Facility
During the reconstruction of the ISOLDE on-line mass separator facility at CERN one of the goals was the development and implementation of an efficient and user friendly beam observation system. The pick-up devices used on the two mass separators and the beam lines are mainly Faraday cups, wire scanners and wire grids. Most of these items were specifically designed at ISOLDE, in particular, a l...
متن کاملISOLDE past, present and future
The idea of production of short-lived radioisotopes with the on-line technique has it roots in the early 1950s. In 1964 this became a reality when CERN approved an experiment at the 600MeV proton synchro-cyclotron, the SC. The first experiments were performed in 1967 and since then the ISOLDE programme has gradually developed into a major undertaking. Since 1992 the ISOLDE Radioactive Beam Faci...
