4. ISOLDE news

Dr Karsten Riisager (CERN)

18/12/2007, 14:05

I shall review briefly recent (and foreseen) administrative changes at CERN that are relevant for the ISOLDE users, including registration of users and safety courses.

49. The HIE-ISOLDE project

Dr Matteo Pasini (CERN)

18/12/2007, 14:10

This talk will present the plans for the HIE-ISOLDE project.

42. Future physics at HIE-ISOLDE: a personal view

Prof. Philip Woods (University of Edinburgh)

18/12/2007, 14:30

The Rex Isolde, and Miniball and CD arrays, already constitute a world class facility for nuclear structure physics with radioactive beams, with nuclear astrophysics studies also starting up. The future HIE-ISOLDE project promises to open up significantly the possiblities for new physics with the uniquely wide range of beam species available on Rex Isolde. The talk will explore these...

11. Transfer reactions with HIE-ISOLDE

Riccardo Raabe (Instituut vorr Kern- en Straligsfysica, K.U.Leuven)

18/12/2007, 15:00

The evolution of the shell structure far from stability shows striking effects, due to changes in the underlying interaction. Spin-orbit and proton-neutron interactions, pairing, the vicinity of the continuum, induce effects that translate in observables such as the migration of single-particle levels, reduced or disappearing shell gaps, deformation. Precise spectroscopic information has been...

23. Results with ISCOOL a new Radio Frequency Quadrupole Cooler and Buncher at ISOLDE

Hanna Franberg (ISOLDE/CERN)

18/12/2007, 15:30

We will present the installation of the ISCOOL in the HRS beam line section and give the results from the tests performed during the on-line commissioning in November 2007.

30. First laser measurements on radioactive beams using ISCOOL

Mr Mane Junior Ernesto Batista (Dept.of Phys.&Astronomy,Schuster Lab, University of Manchester)

18/12/2007, 15:50

Collinear laser spectroscopy provides an excellent diagnostic tool for characterizing the ion beam extracted from the ISOLDE RFQ cooler-buncher. Potassium and rubidium beams prepared in ISCOOL were delivered to the COLLAPS beam line and focussed to give 50% transmission through a 1mm iris. The iris was used to overlap a co-propagating Ti:Sa laser. The laser was tuned to resonance on a...

5. Spin determination and nuclear moment measurements of 71Cu and 72Cu

Dr Kieran Flanagan (KU-University of Leuven)

18/12/2007, 16:05

As part of the IS439 experiment the COLLAPS collaboration has recently measured the hyperfine structure of 71,72Cu. From this work we are able to unambiguously assign the spin of 72Cu and extract the magnetic and quadrupole moments for both isotopes. This work is part of the ongoing investigation of the evolution of nuclear structure with neutron excess in the copper isotope chain. A central...
