CERN boosts ISOLDE with a doubled proton beam energy

During Long Shutdown 3, CERN is upgrading the transfer line to ISOLDE, increasing the proton beam energy from 1.4 GeV to 2 GeV.
CERN is maneuvering 8.5-tonne dipoles through a narrow passage as part of an upgrade to its Isotope Separator On-Line (ISOLDE) facility. The project will double the proton beam energy delivered to ISOLDE, increasing the production of rare isotopes. Originally designed for 1 GeV…
