ISOLDE-CERN

Description The Isotope Separator On-Line, ISOLDE, is a facility dedicated to the production of a large variety of radioactive beams. The facility is located at the Proton-Synchrotron Booster (PSB) at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, and provides low energy radioactive beams and post-accelerated beams up to 5.5 MeV/u. In the last 45 years the ISOLDE facility has gathered unique expertise in research with radioactive beams. Over 700 isotopes of more than 70 elements have been used in a wide range of research domains, including cutting edge studies in nuclear structure, atomic physics, nuclear astrophysics, and fundamental interactions. These probes are also used to do frontier research in solid state and life sciences.
