Abstract :
Brookhaven´s AGS Booster has been modified to deliver slow extracted beam to a new beam line, the NASA Space Radiation Laboratory (NSRL). This facility was constructed in collaboration with NASA for the purpose of performing radiation effect studies for the NASA space program. The design of the resonant extraction system has been described. A more detailed description, which includes predictions of the slow extracted beam time structure has been described. In this report we present results of the system commissioning and performance.
