Abstract.A project devoted to the production and study of neutron rich heavy nuclei (GALS -project) is being realized at Flerov Laboratory for Nuclear Reactions (FLNR) -JINR. GALS is planned to exploit available beams from the U-400M cyclotron in low energy multi-nucleon transfer reactions to study exotic neutronrich nuclei located in the "north-east" region of nuclear map. Products from 4.5 to 9 MeV/nucleon heavy-ion collisions, such as 136 Xe on 208 Pb, are to be captured in a gas cell and selectively laser-ionized in a sextupole (quadrupole) ion guide extraction system.

“…As the reaction mechanisms are barely selective, the target-ion source system at the origin of the low-energy ion beam combined with the mass analysing magnet and other ion manipulation devices are used to reduce the unwanted contaminants and/or to identify the isotopes of interest. up the diffusion and effusion of the radioactive atoms from the target container [2]. This led to a successful design that today is still competitive and that allows using different atomic and chemical processes to purify the beam.…”

a b s t r a c tThe ISOLDE facility is an ISOL-based radioactive beam facility at CERN. It is dedicated to the production and research of nuclei far from stability. Exotic nuclei of variety of chemical elements are available for the study of nuclear structure, nuclear astrophysics, fundamental symmetries and atomic physics, as well as for applications in condensed-matter and life sciences. Since longer than a decade it has offered the largest variety of post-accelerated radioactive beams in the world. In order to broaden the scientific opportunities beyond the present ISOLDE facility, the on-going HIE-ISOLDE (High Intensity and Energy) project will provide major improvements in energy range, beam intensity and beam quality. The first phase will boost the beam energy of the current REX LINAC to 5.5 MeV/u resulting in larger cross sections for Coulomb excitation compared to the previous maximum energy of 3 MeV/u. Higher energies will also open up many transfer reaction channels. Physics with post-accelerated beams starts in autumn 2015. The second phase of the project is already approved and is expected to be completed in 2018 allowing beam energies up to 10 MeV/u for A/q = 4.5. In this contribution the present status of the ISOLDE facility including some highlights will be discussed. The HIE-ISOLDE project will be described together with a panorama of the physics cases to be addressed.

“…In 2004 it was decided to incorporate a design study for the beta-beam within the EU-RISOL DS proposal. EURISOL [10] is a project name for a next-generation radioactive beam facility based on the ISOL method [4] for the production of intense radioactive beams for nuclear physics, astrophysics and other applications. The proposal was accepted with the beta-beam task as an integral part.…”

The Technical challenges of Beta-beams

The beta-beam concept for the production of intense electron (anti-)neutrino beams is now well established. A first feasibility study, made at CERN in 2002, aimed to identify possible showstoppers. The results were very encouraging and the work is now continuing as an integral part of the EU-supported EURISOL Design Study. The first study at CERN is a good starting point for a conceptual design study, but that the annual rate of neutrinos even with a revised parameter list is insufficient. A number of technical challenges must be faced to improve on the annual rate, e.g. target technology for higher beam powers, space charge related limitations in the existing CERN accelerators and activation issues in the CERN PS.
