MATERIALS SCIENCE Storied accelerator to test chips The world’s first superconducting cyclotron will receive a new lease on life testing next-generation microchips, Michigan State University’s Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) announced last week. From 1982 to 2020, the K-500 cyclotron produced beams of atomic nuclei ranging from hydrogen to uranium for experiments in nuclear physics, relying on superconducting magnets to confine the particles. Last year, the cyclotron was replaced by FRIB’s new, more powerful, $730 million linear accelerator. Typically, old particle accelerators are demolished or...
