The High Intensity and Energy ISOLDE project (HIE-ISOLDE)* is a major upgrade of the ISOLDE facility at CERN. The energy range of the post-accelerator will be extended from 2.85 MeV/u to 9.3 MeV/u for beams with A/q = 4.5 (and to 14.3 MeV/u for A/q = 2.5) once all the cryomodules of the superconducting accelerator are in place. The project has been divided into different phases, the first of which (phase 1a) finished in October 2015 after the hardware and beam commissioning were completed**. The physics campaign followed with the delivery of both radioactive and stable beams to two different experimental stations. The characteristics of the beams (energies, intensities, time structure and beam contaminants) and the plans for the next experimental campaign will be discussed in this paper.

WEOBA01 | Beam Commissioning of the HIE-ISOLDE Post-Accelerator | 2045 |
|
||
Phase 1a of the High Intensity and Energy ISOLDE (HIE-ISOLDE) project* was completed in 2015. The first cryomodule and two High Energy Beam Transfer lines (HEBT) were installed. In addition, many of the subsystems of the normal conducting part of the post-accelerator (REX) were renovated or refurbished. Following the hardware commissioning of the different system** and, in preparation for the start of the physics program, many tests and measurements were conducted as part of the beam commissioning program. The results of these tests and the plan for the next beam commissioning campaign are discussed in this paper.
