Mid Term Review Meeting, 26 September Co-ordinator’s Report ISOLDE

Mid Term Review Meeting, 26 September Co-ordinator’s Report ISOLDE Today Offers the Largest Range of Available Isotopes Worldwide

Mid Term Review Meeting, 26 September Co-ordinator’s Report HIE-ISOLDE aims at increasing the energy of the RIB up to 10AMeV and their intensity by a factor 10 Energy Upgrade: The HIE-ISOLDE project concentrates on the construction of the SC LINAC and associated infrastructure in order to upgrade the energy of the post- accelerated radioactive ion beams to 5.5 MeV/u in 2014 and 10 MeV/u by 2016 Intensity Upgrade: The design study for the intensity upgrade, also part of HIE-ISOLDE, started in 2012, and addresses the technical feasibility and cost estimate for operating the facility at 15 kW once LINAC4 and PS Booster are online. Beam Quality Upgrade: RFQ cooler and buncher Solid state lasers for RILIS Higher mass resolving power HRS

Mid Term Review Meeting, 26 September Co-ordinator’s Report Administrative & Management Issues There are no deviations from the original contract In the process of re-scheduling the secondment period (new partners, late recruitment, etc…) Given the difficulty in recruiting ER1, task was covered by CERN staff => we may consider re-orienting ER1 future candidate on cavity and cryomodule test 3 ESRs enrolled on a PhD programme. More information will be provided by Seamus Hegarty next…

Mid Term Review Meeting, 26 September Co-ordinator’s Report Conclusions The presence of the CATHI fellows is paramount for the HIE- ISOLDE project: Replace missing staff deployed on other high-priority projects (LS1, LHC Upgrade, L4, LIU, etc…) Represent 1/3 rd of the total manpower of the project and almost 2/3 rd in the case of the Design Study ! Help establish or re-inforce existing collaborations Keep up with the pace – maintain this good spirit and teamwork
