From last year 9Be(n,a)6He Actinide targets (ThO, UCx) pure n-rich Pure Lanthanide beams
TISD • Standing Group for Upgrade of ISOLDE (SGUI)Results and Priorities discussed vs proposals from INTC • BeO tests : target material, n-converter for (n,X) • Low work function cavities (GdB6) for Nd beams • UC-x tests (INFN, EURISOL Task#3)
Production of 6He • 1.3 10136He/s 100kW, 40 MeV deuton beam • 2 10136He/s 100kW, 1 GeV proton beam • 10146He/s 200kW, 2 GeV proton beam M. Hass et al., J. Phys. G 35, 014042 (2008); T.
