As a subset of radioactive beams, isomer beams open up the dimensions of excitation energy and angular momentum. The problem of isomer decay rates is briefly presented, as they are not yet well understood. The use of isomer beams for nuclear structure investigations is reviewed, using examples related to exotic decay modes, charge radii, and Coulomb excitation. There are also unique possibilities for the study of induced electromagnetic depopulation. A key aspect is beam purification, for which different techniques are discussed.

The method of 'cold' fusion reactions has been applied successfully to synthesize isotopes of elements up to Z =113. However, the cross sections were found to decrease nearly exponential with increasing atomic number. The production of isotopes up to Z =118 using 48 Ca - projectiles and actinide targets was claimed from experiments performed at the Dubna Gasfilled Separator (DGFRS). Attempts to confirm the results from one of the used reactions (48 Ca + 238 U ) have been performed at other laboratories. The results of the different experiments are compared. In order to increase our knowledge on the structure of heaviest nuclei an experimental program on α - γ - decay spectroscopy of transfermium isotopes was started at SHIP, GSI. Results on trends in single particle levels in odd mass einsteinium isotopes as well as on the identification of a (possible) K -isomer in 252 No will be presented.
