Physics at NSCL and FRIB |
The National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory (NSCL) at Michigan State University has a long history of innovative advancements in accelerator science for use in nuclear physics. The latest in this line will be the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB), presently in its early development, and scheduled to come on-line later this decade. Toward the goal of efficient acceleration of high intensity particle beams, at FRIB and other facilities as well, the MSU/NSCL/FRIB Accelerator Physics team members pursue studies in superconducting radio frequency accelerating devices, intense ion sources, high-efficiency large-scale cryogenic systems, beam instrumentation and diagnostics, and fundamental particle beam dynamics. | |
