The ISOLDE Improvement Programme
The ISOLDE Improvement Programme The ISOLDE Improvement Programme (IIP) brings together a series of upgrades and consolidation activities to maintain and further develop the ISOLDE facility. The programme includes projects addressing the accelerator infrastructure, beam production, and delivery systems, and experimental facilities, with the objective of improving operational flexibility, reliability, and long-term sustainability. Among the

Resolving a long-standing question at ISOLDE
Resolving a long-standing question at ISOLDE Among the many pioneering results that have been published at ISOLDE was the discovery of odd-even staggering in the mean-square charge radius in neutron deficient Hg isotopes in the 1970s, as part of the RADOP experiment which measured the isotopic shifts using optical spectroscopy [1], [2]. Since then, this

HIE-ISOLDE: Stage 1 fully installed
HIE-ISOLDE: Stage 1 fully installed ISOLDE is CERN’s radioactive beam facility that produces low energy and post-accelerated beams. The high energy and intensity, average intensity of 2 μA, of the proton beam from the PS booster on different thick targets produces high quality intense beams of rare nuclei. The ISOLDE facility at CERN offers the

Meeting the challenges of the High-Energy ISOLDE!
Meeting the challenges of the High-Energy ISOLDE! The On-Line Isotope Mass Separator ISOLDE is a facility dedicated to the production, study and use of exotic nuclei located far from the valley of stability i.e. far from the species found naturally on Earth. These exotic nuclei are being studied in many different experiments in the fields
