Abstract: The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) has just been completed at Michigan State University and is about to start user operations. After an initial power ramp-up, it will provide unprecedented intensities of rare isotope beams for experiments with fast, stopped and reaccelerated beams. FRIB will enable new classes of experiments in the nuclear structure and nuclear astrophysics areas, in particular with isotopes very far from stability. In addition, special isotopes in previously unavailable quantities will become available for studies of fundamental symmetries and for societal needs. This talk will present an overview of the FRIB facility and of the exciting science opportunities that FRIB will generate. Finally, the status of the facility and examples of machine learning applications under development at FRIB will be presented.
Bio: Marc Hausmann is leading the Secondary Beam Accelerator Physics Group at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams at Michigan State University. His group is involved in providing users with rare isotope beams and has been involved in the design and commissioning of the Advanced Rare Isotope Separator ARIS. Before working at MSU, he was a Postdoctoral Research Associate at Los Alamos National Laboratory and the Heavy Ion Research Center (GSI) in Darmstadt. His Ph.D work at the Justus-Liebig-Universität in Gießen, Germany, focused on energy isochronous mass measurements at the Experimental Storage Ring at GSI.
