The new facility is proposed to respond to the demands of these, specifically a phased development of Radioactive Ion Beam (RIBs). This facility will include a 70 MeV negativeion cyclotron with the development of 5 Radioisotope production stations and two production stations for RIBs for nuclear physics and materials science research.
