Mandate from directors of research and accelerators to study the short term future of the CERN ISOLDE facility:

• Reports to the directors
  • Could be in form of conceptual design reports (CERN yellow reports)
• Informs on a regular basis INTC, technical committees, ISC and departmental managements
• Members: Chair INTC, Chair ISC, Immediate past ISC chair, ISOLDE technical coordinator, ISOLDE physics coordinator, ISOLDE targets and ion sources responsible, Group leader EN STI, Group leader ISOLDE physics group, Project leader for PSBooster upgrade, RP representative, External institute representatives

Short term:

• To work for the enhancement of the infrastructure
• To identify programme-driven priorities for beam developments
• To seek for external collaborations for the ISOLDE enhancement projects
• To lead the discussions for bringing to ISOLDE the new upgrades of the PS Booster (2GeV) and LINAC 4
• To study the implications for ISOLDE of taking a primary beam current of 10mA into the present target area
• To assure full coherence with the EURISOL study and with HIE-ISOLDE
