News from WPsWP 1 : Next project coord meeting at CEN.SCK (high power targetry workshop).Coord+SC in Kolkata Jan 2014

WP 2 : 2 designs proposed and compatible with ISOLDE environment, pumps seem to be Ok, robot handling also: to be further tested, prototyped, checked against safety,

WP 4 : slightly delayed (PSI will provide expertise, CERN holds the WP)

WP 5 : some estimates by Fluka, well on tracks for recommendations taken into account in the design

WP 6 : collections of Po done. 2 Draft publications.

WP 7 : 1st data on At and other isotopes inventories.

WP 8 : Refurbishment of Radiochemical lab in progress.IPUL ?
