Description

FRIB, the US’s “Facility for Rare Isotope Beams” at Michigan State University (MSU), will be based on a 400 kW, 200 MeV/u heavy ion driver linac and use in-flight rare isotope production. FRIB will provide a wide variety of high-quality beams of unstable isotopes at unprecedented intensities, opening exciting research perspectives with fast, stopped, and reaccelerated beams. This talk will give an overview of FRIB and its science opportunities, and summarize the status of the project.
