Description

HIE-ISOLDE experiments have been focused on two experimental setups in 2017, with the Miniball HPGe array [2] taking most of the beam time alongside experiments at the third beam line. The ISOLDE Solenoidal Spectrometer (ISS) [3] is currently being commissioned on the second beam line with the aim of performing few-nucleon transfer reactions in the magnetic field of a former MRI magnet. As HIE-ISOLDE operation becomes routine, the number of experiments per year is increasing and this year there were 12 experiments in a campaign running from July until November. In addition to Coulomb excitation, this year we have also performed multi-nucleon transfer reactions, utilising the maximum energy of the linac.

In this talk I will present the preliminary status of experiments from the 2017 campaign at Miniball.
