ISOLDE
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…

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…

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.…
