EURONS PCC-Meeting, Mainz (Germany), 6.-7. April 2006K. Riisager, TA8 ISOLDE

Recent highlights from ISOLDE

• News from the facility– Users meeting, February 6-8

• ....and some physics results– IS367 REX 9Li beam– IS413 mass measurements– IS427 moments of Mg nuclei– IS429 parity non-conservation– IS439 moments of Cu nuclei


Outcome of review (NuPAC meeting)

CERN Research Board, December 1, 2005 meeting:


HIE-ISOLDE

• Detailed plans being prepared• Upgrade in several dimensions:

– REX energy– proton beam intensity– beam quality– new ISOL beams

• Outside funding:– Wallenberg foundation, 14.5 MSEK (1.5 MEuro) for RILIS

upgrade– Leuven, 0.6 MEuro– Manchester+Birmingham, 0.16 MEuro for RFQ cooler

March 2006 Stable beam test

A1/2=5865(2), B3/2=-28(2)

Literature (RF measurements and level mixing)A1/2=5866.915(5), B3/2=-28.8(6)

A detection efficiency 1:30 000 for the strongest component of the hyperfine structure.

Given the yields at ISOLDEthis will allow COLLAPS to study copper isotopes up to and including 72Cu.
