The Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility (HRIBF) includes a K=100 cyclotron (ORIC) which provides high-intensity light-ions for producing radioactive atoms, and a 25 MV tandem electrostatic accelerator which is used to accelerate the radioactive-ions for nuclear structure and nuclear astrophysics research. Ion sources and targets suitable for the production of various radioactive ion beams (RIBs) have been developed. Operational experiences, problem areas, and plans for future beam development are discussed.
