The possibilities for photofission experiments at the new ELI-NP facility will be discussed. At ELI-NP, high power laser systems together with a very brilliant gamma beam are the main research tools [1-3]. The status of the project will be reported. The γ-beam system and the expected performance of the electron accelerator and the production lasers will be discussed. The targeted operational...

A projectile fragment beam, separated in flight has an inevitable large emittance due to their stochastic creation processes and the atomic interactions in the production target, degrader and detector materials. Therefore, high-resolution spectrometer experiments require the use of dedicated ion-optical operation modes, or methods which reduce the phase space by cooling and energy bunching....

ISOL@MYRRHA at SCK•CEN in Mol, Belgium, is a project for a next-generation Isotope Separation On-Line (ISOL) facility that will use a fraction of the proton beam of the MYRRHA accelerator to produce radioactive nuclei for fundamental and applied research. In the current conceptual design, ~0.2-mA beam of 600MeV will be used on a ruggedized target-ion source system, which allows the use of a...
