PIAFE (Production, Ionisation et Acceleration de Faisceaux Exotiques) is a project of a second generation radioactive ion beam facility, optimized for very intense beams of accelerated neutron-rich nuclei. Fission fragments which are produced in a {sup 235}U target placed in a beam tube of the ILL high-flux reactor will be extracted with the ISOL (isotope separator on-line) technique. After mass separation and charge state 'breeding' they will be post-accelerated to energies around the Coulomb barrier. A considerable R and D program showed the technical feasability in all essential parts and recent improvements (specialized ion sources and a well adapted accelerator) should help to even surpass the original estimations of beam intensities. Technical detail plans are fairly advanced and would allow a rapid realization once the funding is ensured.
