Heavy Ion Laboratory Warsaw University Jarosław Choiński

Cyclotron K=160 (up to 400 MeV of 40 Ar) Ion source: ECR, 10 GHz a new source is going to be instaled soon Extraction: stripping

Total beam-on-target time: 2434 hours in 2006 (about hours/year – mean value in last 5 years) About hours of beam- on-target time in 2006 was used by international users. All projects performed at HIL are evaluated by international Program Advisory Committee.
