The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams is about 92-percent complete. The nuclear science research facility is set for completion in 2021.
Nuclear physicists measured the radii of three calcium isotopes, rich in proton content, for the first time. They obtained the measurements using a laser spectroscopy technique at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory at MSU.
The Wharton Center unveiled their 2019-20 season, which includes a theatrical production called Isotopes in Motion, funded by FRIB.
A collaboration between FRIB and the Department of Statistics and Probability at MSU estimated the boundaries of nuclear existence by applying statistical analysis to nuclear models, and assessed the impact of current and future FRIB experiments.
Researchers have measured for the first time the nuclei of three proton-rich calcium isotopes.
The Engineering News-Record Midwest recognized the FRIB Project in the Higher Education/Research category of its 2018 Best Projects award program.
Interview with Dean Lee, a professor of physics at MSU's Facility for Rare Isotope Beams.
In 2008, the chant went “Bring FRIB to our crib” – in a bid to construct the world’s leading rare isotope research facility right here in Greater Lansing.
The Lansing State Journal posted a photo gallery about the 2018 FRIB and NSCL Open House.
A decade ago, MSU defied expectations and beat out a national laboratory for the chance to design and build the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams. Some 400 scientists and engineers are now working inside the advanced nuclear research site.
Researchers from MSU and the RIKEN Nishina Center in Japan discovered eight new rare isotopes of the elements phosphorus, sulfur, chlorine, argon, potassium, scandium and, most importantly, calcium.
This year marks the 150th anniversary of the first periodic table of elements. At stages the table has been added to, as new elements are discovered or, these days, ‘manufactured’. Just how far can the table keep growing?
