Abstract
A description is given of the experimental facilities available at the 33 billion electron volt Alternating Gradient Synchrotron (AGS). Using complex beam gymnastics to spill beam on several targets, it is possible to run simultaneous experiments at a number of energy levels. The logistics in planning and setting up experiments are discussed and a summary of machine operations for the year 1964 is presented. Improvements to increase the beam intensity, reliability, and flexibility of the machine are outlined.
