Description
Compared with other radioactive ion beam facilities worldwide, the IGISOL facility specialises in the production of shorter-lived nuclei and offering a diverse range of elements. Based at the JYFL Accelerator Laboratory, Jyvaskyla, Finland, a major upgrade is nearing completion. This includes the construction of a separate laboratory and installation of an additional cyclotron, both devoted to "IGISOL 4" experiments. The present status, and plans for laser spectroscopic studies in particular, will be given.
