Primary beam development for FRIB experiments
Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Since starting the user operation of Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) at Michigan State University in May 2022, the driver linac has provided more than a dozen ion beam species from Oxygen to Uranium to the production target. FRIB has routinely provided 20 kW primary beams on target since March 2025, which is a factor of 20 higher than at the beginning of scientific user operation. In this presentation, the recent progress of FRIB driver linac beam development, a discussion of efficient primary beam tuning procedures based on physics applications, and accelerator improvement projects for low-loss accelerator will be discussed.
