Bjorn Jonson (Institute of Theoretical Physics)18/12/2012, 16:00InvitedThe ISOLDE Facility at the CERN SC was closed in connection with the shut-down of the CERN SC on December 19, 1990 after about 23 years of operation. ISOLDE was given the opportunity to continue its activity in an external beam from the PS Booster. The new ISOLDE PSB Facility was inaugurated in the end of May 1992 after less than 18 months of construction. Very fast the scientific programme...Go to contribution page

Prof. Helge Ravn18/12/2012, 16:40InvitedI have had the privilege to follow ISOLDE since 1965 where I as CERN fellow studied nuclear reaction cross-sections of astrophysical interest. I was the last one to use the of-line mass separator of the CERN Nuclear Chemistry Group for this purpose. Hereafter it was devoted to the target and ion-source development for the now planned Isotope Separator On-Line (ISOLDE) to become on line to the...Go to contribution page

Richard Catherall (CERN)18/12/2012, 17:00InvitedThe ISOLDE Facility is going through a substantial change, both in terms of infrastructure and new developments for the improvement of radioisotope production. The target area upgrade project includes the replacement of the target handling robots and the installation of the alpha gamma hot cell required for the waste treatment of irradiated target units. As part of the HIE-ISOLDE project, the...Go to contribution page
