Prof. Jens Dilling (TRIUMF)18/12/2007, 17:15The ISAC facility at TRIUMF is providing over 200 different radioactive beams to users at energies up to 5 MeV/u. Plans exist to extend the facility by an additional 200muA proton beam line and a photo-fission facility based on a mega-watt class superconducting electron linac. One of the experimental facilities at ISAC is TITAN, a high precision Penning trap mass spectrometer. First...Go to contribution page

Dr Michiharu Wada (RIKEN Nishina Center)18/12/2007, 17:45The RIKEN Radioactive Ion Beam Factory, a major upgrade of the existing heavy-ion accelerator facility at RIKEN, has recently been commissioned. Three new ring cyclotrons boost the beam energies to 440 and 350 MeV/u for light and heavy ions, respectively with an intensity goal for Uranium beams of 1p micro A. From these primary beams intense secondary radioactive ion beams will be...Go to contribution page

Geirr Sletten (NBI University of Copenhagen)18/12/2007, 18:15Nuclear structure physics is testing nuclei to the limits of their existence by imposing extreme values of Isospin, Exitation energy and Angular momentum on them. In hyperdeformed nuclei the deformation parameter is the central issue. Theoretical predictions are that nuclei at extreme angular momentum might acquire shapes with small axis ratio 3:1 and that rotational bands might exist in...Go to contribution page
