At the Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility the hardware to produce and
deliver the RIB's for nuclear physics and nuclear astrophysics experiments
is in the initial stage of operation. The As-69 and F-17 have been delivere
d for the first experiments. Presently intense research is in progress to i
mprove the intensity of As and F beams. The Ga-63,Ga-64 beams and the Ni-56
beam in batch mode are in development plans.
