In this section we report on the status and progress of the Innovative Charge Breeding Techniques (ICBT) task of the EURISOL Joint Research Activity (JRA), in the framework of the ENSAR-2 program. The progress of the ICBT JRA will be benchmarked against declared deliverables and milestones and their respective timelines. There are 2 deliverables and 1 milestone related to ICBT:
Deliverables
- 1 Report on performances of the EBIS debuncher (Month 24)
- 3 Conceptual design report of a new generation charge breeder (Month 36)
Milestones
- 2 Experiments to find the optimal breeder configuration (Month 24)
As we see, none of the deliverables/milestones were due by month 17. Nevertheless, we will take a more detailed look to each point in order to demonstrate and discuss the present status and progress made towards the final goals.
