Abstract
Phase 1a of the High Intensity and Energy ISOLDE (HIE-ISOLDE) project* was completed in 2015. The first cryomodule and two High Energy Beam Transfer lines (HEBT) were installed. In addition, many of the subsystems of the normal conducting part of the post-accelerator (REX) were renovated or refurbished. Following the hardware commissioning of the different system** and, in preparation for the start of the physics program, many tests and measurements were conducted as part of the beam commissioning program. The results of these tests and the plan for the next beam commissioning campaign are discussed in this paper.
