    iThemba LABS will be celebrating 30 years of operation with the K200 separated sector cyclotron (SSC) in 2017. This accelerator has produced charged particle beams for radioisotope production, nuclear physics research and medical radiation therapy very reliably over the years. iThemba LABS also operates two electrostatic accelerators. As a result of aging equipment, the number of interruptions...

    The GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung GmbH at Darmstadt, Germany, operates three accelerators, the main linac UNILAC (UNIversal Linear ACcelerator), the heavy ion synchrotron SIS18 and the experimental storage ring ESR. The ‘Facility for Anti-Proton and Ion Research’ (FAIR) which is presently under construction, extends and supersedes the existing GSI. Major service and upgrade...

    Talk

    The Collider Accelerator Department (CAD) at Brookhaven National Laboratory, which includes the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), has been in operation for 57 years. For the past 17 years, production at RHIC has been the major focus, but new goals loom on the horizon. In this paper and presentation, I will discuss, compare and contrast early methods to those used in the modern era here...
