CERN’s accelerators show very good availability rates: beams are in place

Upgrades and repairs of the HIE-ISOLDE linear accelerator will enable experiments to delve deeper than ever into the physics of radioactive isotopes

An experiment performed at CERN’s ISOLDE facility shows that the nucleus of the isotope radium-222 is pear-shaped

Knowledge of this almost uncharted region could help cast light on how gold and other heavy elements form in the universe

The first result to emerge from the HIE-ISOLDE accelerator is the confirmation that the tin-132 nucleus belongs to the doubly magic group of nuclei

The HIE-ISOLDE project is on its way to providing radioactive nuclei at higher energies than before

50 years ago, the first radioactive beam at ISOLDE was produced

In the fourth part of our series, celebrating 50 years of physics at ISOLDE, we look at the almost-complete HIE-ISOLDE upgrade

The first African-led experiment has taken place at CERN

After installing the third of four cryomodules, the HIE-ISOLDE facility began its 2017 physics run expecting great results
