EURISOL DESIGN STUDY: TOWARDS AN ULTIMATE ISOL FACILITY FOR EUROPE

The European roadmap for nuclear physics advocates the construction of two next generation radioactive beam facilities: the projectile fragmentation facility FAIR at Darmstadt, Germany and the ISOL facility EURISOL. The EURISOL concept is being studied in the framework of a pan-european Design Study funded by the European Commission. The general design of EURISOL and the latest achievements in terms of modeling and prototyping are presented.
