The high efficiency and selectivity of laser ionization in a hot cavity has been proven at ISOLDE off-line mass separator in 1989. Following the first on-line demonstration of laser-ionized Yb radioactive isotopes at ISOLDE-3, the technique has served for a great number of ISOLDE experiments. Today, the laser ion source named RILIS is one of principal ion sources used at ISOLDE and other...

The presentation will report on the new beams made available in 2010 at ISOLDE. It will also provide some feedback on how the beams were produced this year, and some options for future improvements. Some of the highlights are the unexpected Fe beam produced with a VADIS ion source and a submicron target, the delivered neutron rich Au beams, and the replacement of the traditional MK3 FEBIAD on...

Increased ionization efficiencies for light noble gases and molecules are still required for new physics experiments, in present facilities like ISOLDE and for future installations such as EURISOL. In order to improve these beams, two new plasma ion sources are implemented on to the ISOLDE target ion source base.
The first one is a COMIC-type ion source operating at 2.45 GHz and equipped...

As any complex experiment, ISOLDE concentrates all type of hazards, highlighted by its radiological context link to the use of actinide targets. The future increase of energy and intensity, with the HIE-ISOLDE project, will increase or bring new hazards into the facilities as well as new safety constraints, such as ALARA procedures and Safety files for experiments, facilities or projects. This...

We present the latest results from the new fast tape-station installed at Isolde. With a transport time of 200ms and the ability to make in-beam measurements, we are able to make accurate yield and release measurements of very short-lived isotopes, down to half-lives of just a few milliseconds.
