The Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) has been in routine operation at 500 mA since the last season of 2021, utilizing two superconducting cavities, bunch by bunch feedback system, and fast orbit feedback system, along with many technical efforts. The operation of TPS maintains its high reliability and availability. The mean time between failures is more than 190 hours with an availability greater...
Today, new heavy ion accelerator facilities are emerging worldwide, including FRIB in the United States, RAON in Korea, HIAF in China, and FAIR in Germany. While each facility features distinct accelerator configurations, they share a common goal: advancing nuclear science through the acceleration of intense heavy ion beams. Among these, the RIKEN RI Beam Factory (RIBF) in Japan has led the...
