Abstract:A new series of experiments (mainly astrophysics) hegan at TRIUMF in July 2001 when the ISAC-I linear accelerator began delivering up to 1.5 MeV/u radioactive ion beams (RIB) to users. A superconducting linear accelerator extending the RIB energy to 6.5 MeV/u has recently been approved and is now being constructed (ISAC-11). Record RIB intensities are being achieved from different target ion sources with a primary incident proton beam of 500 MeV, up to 50 pA intensity. This will later be increased to 100 pA, c… Show more
