Description
Tandem accelerator facility at RBI Zagreb consists of two electrostatic accelerators (6 MV HVEC EN and 1 MV HVEE Tandetron) and eight beamlines. Despite the decrease in total beam time fraction dedicated to basic nuclear physics, the exploitation of the machines is increasing, mainly due to the expanding of accelerator and beam line capabilities of importance to applications in materials science. Several international technical projects in past years helped us to renew the facility and widen its capabilities. The most recent upgrades are installation of new sputtering ion souces on both accelerators and commissioning of dual beam irradiation scattering chamber.
The status of the utilization of machines and beamlines as well as details of the upgrades carried out in past years will be presented. Also a brief overview of the main projects, physics performed and users distribution will be given. We will also present future plans in development of the whole facility.
