Description
Since the first year of operation, REX-ISOLDE has been delivering numerous post-accelerated radioactive beams [1,2]. An update of the ISOLDE database [3] is being done, including REX efficiencies for more than 50 isotopes corresponding to more than 15 elements. Based on this data the yields of post-accelerated beams was extrapolated for the upgrade of the ISOLDE facility, the so-called High Intensity Energy ISOLDE project.
A method will be demonstrated to predict yields for post accelerated isotopes at HIE-ISOLDE starting from the existing low energy ISOLDE yield database. The REX post acceleration system has the potential to transport and accelerate most of the 700+ radioisotopes from 65 elements of ISOLDE's repertoire thanks to the generic approach used for charge breeding and acceleration.
