4 working groups established:• Astrophysics and nuclear models• Instrumentation• Link to EURONS large scale facilities• Link to European small scale facilities
2 workshops3 new collaborations established (JINA, EURISOL, ECOS)
.... a new degree of interaction for increased efficiency in nuclear astrophysics has been established
Alex C. Mueller, MANET NuPECC Meeting 2009, Vienna, March 13th - 14th, 2009
Mapping studies - NuPECC, EWON
• The mapping of the community at large, performed under the auspices of NuPECC are subject of two dedicated networks
• EWON has specifically addressed the eastern-European nuclear physics research potential with an emphasis on the candidate countries
• Enhanced involvement of more than 500 scientists• Look for actions necessary to improve the existing infrastructures • Exploit and promote the research
potential of “local machines”• Promote the high-level of expertise
of EWON scientists• Come up with ideas to be included
in future I3 => EWIRA• Interact intensively with NuPECC
Alex C. Mueller, MANET NuPECC Meeting 2009, Vienna, March 13th - 14th, 2009
Enhanced dissemination - PANSI3
A dedicated outreach activity • to reach the layman• to raise public awareness of
nuclear science in Europe• to disseminate EURONS results
......realized with a concerted networking effort
......published recently
Alex C. Mueller, MANET NuPECC Meeting 2009, Vienna, March 13th - 14th, 2009

Impact and future
• Applicationsdata, basic knowledge and techniques for spin-offs in– health, medicine– safety, security– producing and evaluating nuclear data and techniques for
applications, e.g. nuclear energy
• Society– outreach activities have prompted public awareness and have
attracted large interest (e.g. open-house days at various EURONS facilities)
– integral part of the EURONS activities: education of next-generation nuclear scientists, a great value for the society as a whole
• Future– all EURONS activities will continue in one or another way, ENSAR?– integration of east-European scientists from candidate countries– several long-term projects (NUSTAR@FAIR, SPIRAL-II, Eurisol...)
and many "small" laboratories increase future opportunities

Conclusions
EURONS activities have lead to an ... efficient use of existing resources... improvement of its facilities... increase of access in quantity and quality
EURONS has fulfilled its mission
EURONS has largely disseminated its achievements, more publications to come
EURONS is a managerial and scientific success, for the benefit of the facilities, the user community, and the public
As a pan-European project, EURONS has very successfully contributed to structuring the field, coordinating ongoing activities, promoting the most needed R&D, defining future needs of the nuclear-structure community in Europe
This community must be kept together by a successor project

Intense primary beams
High B-field (~3T), operated at 28 GHz
• compact source, permanent magnets Bmax=3T, Brad~1.7...2.2T highest field of a permanent- magnet trap
• commissioning has begun at the end of 2007, completion within next months• multi-purpose super-conducting ECRIS (MS-ECRIS)
• largest adjustable magnetic field ever achieved: Bmax=4T, Brad=2.7T, large ECR zone
• all components built, but magnets have not yet achieved the requested performances.
Simulations and tests at Grenoble, Groningen, Frankfurt, Catania to optimize E-field:• uniform field: ions weakly scattered,
strongly improved beam quality• non-uniform E-field: ions strongly scattered
