| Description | COLLAPS |
| Organisation | European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) |
| Department | CERN - ISOLDE |
| Country | Switzerland |
| Sector | Academic/University |
| PI Contribution | My work with this collaboration has included the study of four isomeric chains - Al, Ge, Sc and Sb. For the first, detailed analysis is still underway through collaboration of myself and two other members of COLLAPS. For Ge, Sc and Sb I attended the beam times where these isotopes were studied. |
| Collaborator Contribution | COLLAPS have provided their set-up and staff to the research. The expertise of their team allows for the beam line to be ready to use for each and every experiment. I have also been working with Hanne Heylen (a member of the COLLAPS local team) with the analysis of Al. |
| Impact | Studies of 4 isotopic chains, work is still in analysis stage |

| Organisation | University of Jyvaskyla |
| Country | Finland |
| Sector | Academic/University |
| PI Contribution | A total of 5 successful beam times measuring the isotopic chains of Ag, Pd and (for my PhD work) Y and Nb. My work has included offline work on the set-up to prepare for on-line beam times, shift work during the beam times and extensive analysis of the data taken. |
| Collaborator Contribution | Partners contribute the facility and local staff which are of great importance to the running of the experiments. Furthermore, they contribute various parts of equipment which are crucial to the running of the lab. |
| Impact | Upgrades to the collinear laser spectroscopy experiment at the IGISOL doi: 10.1016/j.nimb.2019.04.028 5 successful beam times, analysis still on-going. Two of the beam times with hopefully lead to successful PhD theses, including my own. |

| PI Contribution | Through previous and on-going beam times, we have measured for the first time the hyperfine structure of 255No and plan to continue to the lorentzium chain |
| Collaborator Contribution | This collaboration have provided the equipment, facility and staff for this experiment to run. |
| Impact | One successful beam time so far, analysis still in progress |
