Title: Accelerator commissioning and rare isotope identification at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams

Abstract

In 2008, Michigan State University was selected to establish the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB). Construction of the FRIB accelerator was completed in January 2022. Phased accelerator commissioning with heavy ion beams started in 2017 with the normal-conducting ion source and radio-frequency quadrupole. In April 2021, the full FRIB driver linear accelerator (linac) was commissioned, with heavy ion beams accelerated to energies above 200 MeV/nucleon by 324 superconducting radiofrequency (SRF) resonators operating at 2 K and 4 K with liquid-helium cooling. Further, in preparation for high-power operation, a liquid lithium charge stripper was commissioned with heavy ion beams up to uranium-238, followed by the simultaneous acceleration of multiple-charge-state heavy ion beams to energies above 200 MeV/nucleon. In December 2021, selenium-84 was produced with the FRIB target using a krypton-86 primary beam, demonstrating FRIB’s capability for scientific discovery.

The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) at Michigan State University (MSU) consists of a newly constructed linear accelerator and fragment separator that are designed for enhanced production rates of rare isotopes for use in research and other societal applications. Recent activities through to August 2022 took place to commission the Advanced Rare Isotope Separator (ARIS) and carry out the first experiments. This followed commissioning of the newly constructed linac that is designed to provide orders of magnitude higher beam power than the previously coupled cyclotrons. This required that more advanced target, beam dump, and collimation systems of the newmore »« less

The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) will be the world's premier rare-isotope beam facility. Experiments with the majority (~80%) of the isotope predicted to exist will become available. The FRIB facility is based on a superconducting (SC) heavy ion linac with output energy above 200 MeV/u for any ions at beam power of 400 kW. FRIB includes a target facility for in-flight production of rare isotopes. A three-stage fragment separator will be used to prepare fast rare isotope beams with high-purity for nuclear physics experiments. The installation work of the accelerator and experimental systems is approaching completion and multi-stagemore »« less

Gas stopping and reacceleration techniques at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB)

Journal Article Villari, A. C. C. ; Bollen, G. ; Henriques, A. ; ... - Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research. Section B, Beam Interactions with Materials and Atoms

The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) at Michigan State University provides a wide range of beams and energies for science with fast, stopped and reaccelerated rare-isotope beams. FRIB was commissioned in 2022 with the science program beginning in May 2022. Here, the combination of fast beams followed by gas stopping of rare-isotope beams together with reacceleration is unique to FRIB. Stopping techniques and beam manipulation at very-low energies are important to slow down fast beams for use in either stopped-beam experimental devices, or subsequent injection in the reaccelerator for experiments at energies ranging from 0.3 MeV/u to 12 MeV/u,more »« less

The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams will be completed in late 2021. Here, we report here on the current efforts to commission the first stages of the 200-MeV/u superconducting, continuous wave heavy-ion linac. The statuses of the cryogenic plant and its distribution system, the accelerator cryomodule commissioning and operations, the ion source and front end transport development, the radio-frequency quadrupole commissioning, and then beam dynamics development to support high-power operation are reviewed. Plans for commissioning the remainder of the linac systems are presented.
