External news and journal publications discussing FRIB science.
Michigan State University in East Lansing has launched a Space Electronics Center—part of the College of Engineering and the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams, or FRIB—that will design and test devices and systems for space applications. Texas Instruments is among the early supporters of the center and has worked closely with the FRIB team on some of its first electronics testing sessions.
The U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science (DOE-SC) posted a highlight titled "Record-Breaking Radiation Detection Pins Down Element Formation in Stellar Novae" about the Oak Ridge National Laboratory/MSU research paper titled "Constraining the 30P(p,g)31S Reaction Rate in ONe Novae via the Weak, Low-Energy, β-Delayed Proton Decay of 31Cl" published in Physical Review Letters. DOE-SC posts about 200 published research findings annually, selected by their respective program areas in DOE-SC as publication highlights of special note.
The U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science (DOE-SC) posted a highlight titled “Innovative FRIB Liquid-Lithium Charge Stripper Boosts Accelerator Performance” about the Argonne National Laboratory/FRIB research paper titled “Experimental Demonstration of the Thin-Film Liquid-Metal Jet as a Charge Stripper” published in Physical Review Letters. DOE-SC posts about 200 published research findings annually, selected by their respective program areas in DOE-SC as publication highlights of special note.
FRIB uses nuclear collisions to generate beams of isotopes rarely found in nature because of their instability to radioactive decay, and which should yield new insights into nuclear physics and nucleosynthesis in stars and supernovae.
ARD, a joint organization of Germany's regional public-service broadcasters, conducted an interview with FRIB Experimental Systems Division Director Georg Bollen about the opening of FRIB. (Note: The audio interview on the ARD website is in German.)

Two decades in the making, a new flagship facility for nuclear physics opened on May 2, and scientists from the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory have a hand in 10 of its first 34 experiments. ORNL researchers and their partners at other national laboratories and universities launched the first experiment on May 11. The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams, or FRIB, a DOE Office of Science user facility at Michigan State University, will produce more than 1,000 new rare isotopes.
