FUSHE 2012 – ENSAR-ECOS Workshop on FUture SuperHeavy Element Strategy

The ENSAR-ECOS Workshop on FUture Super-Heavy Element Strategy – FUSHE 2012 will provide a forum for the SHE community to discuss and define the future strategy to reach the common goal – the establishment and investigation of the region of spherical shell-stabilised super-heavy nuclei – the so called “Island of Stability”.

• ENSAR (European Nuclear Science and Applications Research) is an initiative of the European nuclear-science community, funded by the European Commission within the Seventh Framework Programme (FP7).

• ECOS is a European initiative for high-intensity stable-beam facilities, participating in the ENSAR FP7 program with a Network Activity (NA). It has a specific objective (Task 2) to promote synergies in the field of Super-Heavy Element (SHE) research, described as follows: "For this task ECOS is aiming for bringing together the groups with research activities on SHE using high- intensity ion beams for an exchange of new ideas and techniques related to the use of very high intensity stable beams. In particular, Task 2 will propose an optimisation of resources (beam time, target technology, detectors) in the field of SHE research among TNA facilities."
