 ISOLDE

ISOLDE (Isotope Separator On-Line DEvice) is a facility located at CERN (the European Organization for Nuclear Research) in Switzerland. It is dedicated to the study of nuclear physics and was designed to produce and study a wide variety of radioactive isotopes produced through the interaction of protons with different targets. The main function of ISOLDE is to separate and accelerate these isotopes, allowing researchers to examine their properties, including their decay modes, reactions, and interactions with other particles.
