Title :
Radiation effects testing at the 88-inch cyclotron
Author_Institution :
Lawrence Berkeley Lab., CA, USA
Abstract :
The 88-inch cyclotron at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory provides radiation effects test facilities for both heavy ions and protons. The wide range of ions available, and the use of “cocktail” beams, allowing users to switch back and forth between several heavy ion beams without a retune of the accelerator, makes this facility a very versatile and economical choice for radiation effects testing
