Upcoming Events

  • ECR Workshop

    East Lansing, MI
    1 Dec 2009 - 2 Dec 2009
    Guillaume Machicoane (machicoa@nscl.msu.edu)

    The Electron Cyclotron Resonance (ECR) workshop will gather physicists from different laboratories to have an in-depth discussion about how best to meet the FRIB requirement for the ECR ion source. Topics to be discussed include the ion source design, extraction optics and beam brightness, cryogenics for superconducting source, and microwave power generation.

  • Stripper and Target Technology for High Power Heavy Ion Beams

    East Lansing, MI
    7 Dec 2009 - 8 Dec 2009
    Felix Marti (marti@nscl.msu.edu)

    The subject is of major importance for many high power accelerators, existing or to be constructed. This workshop will help to define the R&D work to be done on these subjects for the future FRIB accelerator.

    Representatives from several national and international laboratories will present the status of the strippers.

  • East Lansing, MI
    20 Feb 2010 - 22 Feb 2010
    Brad Sherrill (sherrill@frib.msu.edu), Raman Anantaraman (raman_1@frib.msu.edu)

    An important part of preparing the Conceptual Design Report for the FRIB project is to ensure that alternatives for experimental equipment have been considered and that adequate space is provided in the experimental halls. The FRIB Equipment Workshop will provide a venue for detailed consideration of concepts for specific instruments and consideration of the physics they will enable.
