Osaka University Research Center for Nuclear Physics Click here for more information. The Research Center for Nuclear Physics is a national laboratory founded in 1971 on the recommendation of the Science Council of Japan.
New proposals are also welcome.
The facility is available for use by all interested people in Japan and abroad. The AVF Cyclotron began operation in 1976. MeV began operation in 1991. Beams are utilized for interdisciplinary studies such as atomic physics, medical science, and detector development. A new beam-line with higher energy resolution and good angular resolution is under construction and will be ready for an experiment in 2000.
