Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB)

FRIB is the world’s leading rare isotope facility. It will open new nuclear science frontiers and make possible a range of new nuclear science opportunities. FRIB’s nuclear science program enables scientists to make discoveries about 1) the properties of rare isotopes, 2) nuclear astrophysics, 3) fundamental interactions, and 4) applications for society, including in medicine, homeland security, and industry.

Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB)

Michigan State University (MSU) operates the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) as a user facility for the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science (DOE-SC), supporting the mission of the DOE-SC Office of Nuclear Physics. FRIB is funded by DOE-SC, MSU, and the State of Michigan, with user facility operation supported by the DOE-SC Office of Nuclear Physics. Hosting what is designed to be the most powerful heavy-ion accelerator, FRIB enables scientists to make discoveries about the properties of rare isotopes (that is, short-lived nuclei not normally found on Earth), nuclear astrophysics, fundamental interactions, and applications for society, including in medicine, homeland security, and industry.
