Description

The Jyväskylä Accelerator Laboratory has two cyclotrons, the K130 cyclotron which has been in use since 1992 and the MCC30/15 H-/D- cyclotron which is being commissioned. The K130 cyclotron has been used more than 6000 hours/year since 1996 for nuclear physics research and applications, such as isotope production, space electronics testing and filter membrane production. The new MCC30/15 cyclotron was delivered and installed by NIIEFA, St. Petersburg, Russia in 2009 – 2010. It will be used for nuclear physics experiments and isotope production. The first nuclear physics experiments will start in 2012. In addition to the two cyclotrons the laboratory houses also a 1.7 MV Pelletron accelerator which is used for materials physics experiments and applications. Present status and future plans of the laboratory will be given in the presentation.
