Test Storage Ring at ISOLDE
Test Storage Ring at ISOLDE On Valentine’s day, the lovers of the Test Storage Ring (TSR) at ISOLDE joined expertise in a full day workshop dedicated to study in detail the possible day-one experiments to be done there (see: http://isolde.web.cern.ch/updates/tsrisolde-workshop-14th-february-2014). An anatomy of the proposed experiments and a detailed analysis of the pro and cons

Three Natures in the ISOLDE hand
Three Natures in the ISOLDE hand The radioactive beam facility at CERN, ISOLDE(1) has pioneered many achievements both at the level of designing new devices and of producing frontier Physics. These demarches have been crowned by a series of papers in Nature and Nature communication published within a month. BROKEN IMAGE NOT MOVED (drupal url

Meeting the challenges of the High-Energy ISOLDE!
Meeting the challenges of the High-Energy ISOLDE! The On-Line Isotope Mass Separator ISOLDE is a facility dedicated to the production, study and use of exotic nuclei located far from the valley of stability i.e. far from the species found naturally on Earth. These exotic nuclei are being studied in many different experiments in the fields

ISOLTRAP’s MR-ToF mass separator to plumb a neutron star
ISOLTRAP’s MR-ToF mass separator to plumb a neutron star The mass of an atomic nucleus is one of its most fundamental properties.Via the binding energy, i.e., the difference in mass between its constituents (protons and neutrons) and the entire nucleus, it reflects the sum of all interactions present. Precision mass measurements of short-lived isotopes provide
