By now you know the drill for November 13, 14 and beyond. The session on ISOL Technology will be discussing ways to improve both low energy and post accelerated beams at HRIBF. The discussion in this session must include input from those proposing and doing the experiments. You can best provide answers to the following:

• What beams are highest on your wish list?
• What minimum intensity is required, consider the beam energy and purity?

We will have short, summary presentations on technology being developed now:

• Status of current HRIBF ion sources (10 min)
• Laser ion sources (10 min)
• High density (uranium) targets (10 min)
• Target / Ion source chemical techniques for enhanced beam purification (10 min)
• Isobar suppression by photodetachment (10 min)

• Pure, post accelerated beams - by multipass time-of-flight technique (15 min)
• Two-step targets (10 min)
• Gas stopping and reacceleration (15 min)
