Transnational Access
15/06/05 - This announcement on the opportunity of funded
access to research infrastructures within EURONS
will be published in Physics World, Nuclear Physics News and
CERN Courier.
01/08/05 - The announcement has been published in CERN Courier from July/August 2005.
User projects that received funding from EURONS are asked to quote one of the following
phrases in the acknowledgement of their publications:
"This work was supported by the European Commission within the Sixth Framework Programme
through I3-EURONS (contract no. RII3-CT-2004-506065)."
or the short version:
"Supported through EURONS (European Commission contract no. 506065)"
The research infrastructures of EURONS allow forefront
and worldwide mostly unique research opportunities for nuclear structure studies
and also for inter-/multidisciplinary research exploiting nuclear beams. For example,
the European physicists have the highest energy fragment and post-accelerated beams,
the highest intensities for enriched isotope beams, the smallest-emittance proton beams,
the largest-range and the most short-lived ISOL beams. Similarly, at all facilities one
can single out unique instrumentation for a wide range of experiments with stable and
unstable ions beams. Prominent examples are storage-cooler rings (unique in Europe)
and high-performance spectrometers for particle and gamma-ray detection. ECT* is the
only center of its kind in Europe, bringing together theorists and experimentalists.
An important goal of EURONS is to identify, realise, and coordinate the
improvements and extensions of the instrumentation and the experimental programme of
the facilities for increasing the quality and quantity of access. Specific measures for
achieving these goals will include:
- mutual information on exchange of best practice, coordination of scientific programmes,
training courses, and services offered to users,
-
harmonising/coordination of organisational aspects for users (common proposal,
procedure, joint deadlines, joint PACs where appropriate, etc.),
-
identifying future needs, e.g. by medium-term extensions of the instrumentation
offered to users, and also by long-term prospecting of the field and the need for new
infrastructures.

CERN-ISOLDE
, Geneva, CH - ISOLDE, located at CERN, can produce a large variety of
radioactive ion beams for studies in nuclear, atomic and solid-state physics, and life
sciences. Through REX the ion beams can be post-accelerated to 3.1 MeV/u and higher
energies. The ISOLDE collaboration, consisting of 10 member states, is the interface
between the user community and CERN. |
