Everything to know about FRIB, the world-leading rare isotope research facility. A world leader in nuclear science, Michigan State University is home to the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB). FRIB is where researchers from all career stages and backgrounds come together to make discoveries that change the world.
The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB), opening in 2022 and funded by the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science, MSU and the state of Michigan, will be the preeminent user facility of its type in the world —driving discovery and developing the next generation of scientific leaders.
May 2, 2022 · Michigan State University’s Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB), a user facility for the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science, opened its doors to discovery with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on 2 May. U.S. Secretary of Energy Jennifer M. Granholm and MSU President Samuel L. Stanley Jr., M.D., cut the ribbon to officially mark the start ...
At the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams in Michigan, a new high-energy beam promises to give further insights into rapid neutron capture by packing more neutrons into isotopes than ever before possible. The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams observes five never-before-seen isotopes. 13 May 2024. U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science.
FRIB will be the the most powerful facility of its kind in the world. FRIB has a high discovery potential for new isotopes - with 80% coverage of the isotopes predicted to exist up to Uranium. FRIB capability to produce a wide range of rare isotope beams at energies ranging from thermal to reaccelerated to fast will be unique in the world.
The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB), at Michigan State University, is a superconducting linear accelerator which can accelerate nuclei from elements across the periodic table, up to those as heavy as uranium, to 200 MeV per nucleon or over half the speed of light.
