  • Abstract
    The beam currents and their quality at TRIUMF have been steadily improved since the accelerator began operations shortly before the last Conference. The high current beam stop has now been completed and currents of over 100 amperes have been accelerated. The accelerator routinely delivers beams of 150 nanoamperes of polarized protons. The addition of new beam lines and the improvements in transmission and stability have continued in an orderly fashion to the expected full capability envisaged by the proposers of the negative ion cyclotron meson facility.
