High yields of separated, radioactive isotopic ions (up to 10**1**1 atoms/sec per mu A of incident protons) at online mass separators, e. g. , ISOLDE at CERN (SC), make it feasible to consider using such secondary ions as projectiles for nuclear reactions. A pressing need for reaction data involving radioactive species exists in nuclear astrophysics. This requires having available projectiles (A less than equivalent to 60) in the energy range from about 200 keV/amu to 1. 5 MeV/amu. At TRIUMF, an ISOL device is proposed using the available high proton current ( less than equivalent to 100 mu A). A beam of radioactive species, extracted with about E equals 60 keV from the target/ion source, would be mass analyzed and transported vertically to experimental areas for use there or to be injected into a post-accelerator. Although other possibilities are being considered, most attention so far has been devoted to a RFQ/drift tube linac combination. Parameters for one possible system are presented.
