iThemba LABS is developing a proposal to produce beams of radioactive ions for nuclear and material research. The proposal is centered around the addition of a cyclotron capable of supplying two proton beams of up to 70 MeV energy, with a total current of 750 microamps. While one of these beams would be dedicated to radioisotope production for medical purposes, the other would be available for the production of radio-active ion beams.
A summary of the proposal, still under development is available below for download.
The workshop was held over two days and comprised talks by international and local experts, and parallel sessions of discussion groups to define experimental programme. The groups will eventually submit written proposals that will form the content of the physics case.
The participants agreed that a letter of support should be addressed to the NRF and DST. If you wish to sign this letter of support, and/or submit your own, please register via the link on the menu.

In order to enable an iCal export link, your account needs to have an API key created. This key enables other applications to access data from within Indico even when you are neither using nor logged into the Indico system yourself with the link provided. Once created, you can manage your key at any time by going to 'My Profile' and looking under the tab entitled 'HTTP API'. Further information about HTTP API keys can be found in the Indico documentation.
Additionally to having an API key associated with your account, exporting private event information requires the usage of a persistent signature. This enables API URLs which do not expire after a few minutes so while the setting is active, anyone in possession of the link provided can access the information. Due to this, it is extremely important that you keep these links private and for your use only. If you think someone else may have acquired access to a link using this key in the future, you must immediately create a new key pair on the 'My Profile' page under the 'HTTP API' and update the iCalendar links afterwards.
