  1. Technical News
  • HRS : UC CP target (neutron-rich Ar isotopes) for ISOLTRAP : contamination with stable ion-molecules prevented mass measurements.
  • GPS UC + RILIS (new Solid State Lasers) - 64,65,66Mn mass measurements new half life record for A=66. Contamination on A=66 from Ga and TiO.
  • Upcoming runs : ongoing REX run on in-trap decay of 62Mn + Solid State physics runs on GLM and LA1 (emission channeling, diffusion measurements, mossbauer, etc ...)
  • Turbo pump in HRS zone fixed.
  • Power supply of GPS target has been repaired and will be replaced after this run.
