DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Mr. DELAHAYE\, Pierre (Grand Accelerateur National d
 'Ions Lourds (FR))\nSince 2001\, SPIRAL at GANIL has been delivering radio
 active ion beams of gaseous elements of unique intensity and purity for ph
 ysics experiments. \nRecently\, a project was formed to upgrade SPIRAL for
  making use of so far unexploited capabilities for radioactive ion beam pr
 oduction. Neutron deficient beams from condensable elements should soon be
 come available with unequalled intensities for a number of physics cases i
 n nuclear astrophysics\, nuclear structure and for precision tests of the 
 Standard Model. \nThe upgrade relies on the so called 1+ n+ method: singly
  charged radioactive beams are delivered from a hot plasma source\, the IS
 OLDE VADIS\, to an ECR charge breeder\, the Phoenix charge breeder\, which
  performs the multi-ionisation required by the post-accelerator. \nThe ass
 ociation of VADIS with the present SPIRAL target was lately tested on-line
 . A number of new beams were produced\, showing the potential of such asso
 ciation.\nThe Phoenix charge breeder\, which was previously tested at ISOL
 DE\, is being upgraded. So far\, modest efficiencies were obtained with th
 e charge breeding of light metallic ion beams in ECRIS. This upgrade is pa
 rt of a more general program aiming at improving the performances of charg
 e breeding in ECRIS and EBIS for future ISOL facilities: the EMILIE (Enhan
 ced Multi - Ionization of short Lived Isotopes for EURISOL) project.\n\nTh
 is contribution will present the latest status of these R&D projects.\n\nh
