In the framework of the intense worldwide interest in Radioactive Nuclear Beams, the PIAFE project was proposed and this is now in an advanced phase of study. A fission source will be placed near to the core of the ILL high-flux nuclear reactor; the fission fragments will be extracted, ionized, pre-accelerated, mass separated, and transferred to the SARA heavy ions accelerator complex of the ISN through a 400 m long beam line. The expected beam intensities for many of the produced neutron rich nuclei are orders of magnitude higher than at any other existing or planned facility. This will enable accurate nuclear spectroscopy experiments to determine the characteristics of unknown n-rich nuclei along the r-process path. {copyright} {ital 1995} {ital American} {ital Institute} {ital of} {ital Physics}.
