LISA Final Conference, 1-4 September 2024
As the LISA project was coming to an end, this conference held at CERN gave the opportunity to showcase the work of the 15 early stage researchers (ESR) recruited. Invited speakers from a variety of topics also broadened the horizon: A graduation ceremony was held at the end of the Conference for the ESRs and

RIMS Workshop
Darcy van Eerten ( ESR12) led the whole organization of the RIMS workshop within the frame of the LISA-4-Society actions. Over the past decade, a small set of laboratories have been working on the development of resonance ionization mass spectrometry (RIMS) instruments for the purpose of element-selective isotope analysis without prior chemical separation. From hot

LISA Specialized Training 4 , 7-10 November 2022
ESRs were given a short introduction to various computing models and framework followed by extensive workshop activities and practical work with computer simulation. Themes ranging from atomic and nuclear structure theory, to equipment modelling and design (gas flow, electrodynamics). This event was organized online by the University of Jena in collaboration with the LISA Training

Chornobyl Campaign
The Chornobyl excursion/activity for sample collection (involving 5 ESRs) within the LISA-4-Society Action plan was fully planned to take place in June 2022, but then cancelled due to the invasion of Ukraine. As an immediate outreach contingency plan, the ESRs worked on a series of radiation and radioecology instructional social media posts. The ch.ex.zo account

LISA Specialized Training 3, 18-22 Oct 2021
The Early Stage Researchers were introduced to some of the modern ion manipulation and laser spectroscopic techniques used in radioactive ion beam research, which are also applicable to fundamental nuclear structure research on the actinides. In addition to lectures, practical activities were arranged within the Accelerator Laboratory, giving hands-on access to ion trapping techniques, laser

Joliot Curie International School, 3-8 Oct 2021
The 39th edition of the Joliot Curie International School, entitled “The interplay between atomic electrons and the nucleus: traps, lasers and spectroscopy” will cover the latest scientific achievements in physics across the blurred line separating the nucleus from the rest of the atom. Although the energies of atomic and nuclear phenomena differ by several orders

Euroschool on Exotic Beams, 13-17 Sept 2021
The production and use of energetic radioactive beams is a rapidly developing field in nuclear physics. Pioneering experiments are taking place; dedicated new facilities are being built and commissioned. The aim of the EUROSCHOOL ON EXOTIC BEAMS is to introduce PhD students and young post-doctoral researchers to this field and, also to present some of
