| Description | Development of Titanium-based nanostructured targets for new ISOLDE beams New beams of neutron-deficient Ca and 37K isotope beams are requested by the Standing Group of Upgrade of ISOLDE (GUI). Following up on a successful master thesis with the development of CaO nanostructured targets for Argon beams at ISOLDE, the topics of the PhD is to develop and test titanium based nanomaterials, from either TiO2 or TiC, which are expected to deliver high rates of 37K and exotic Ca isotope beams, and possibly also some neutron-rich S, Cl and P beams. |
