A NIC10 satellite workshop on "Experiments at the new reaccelerated beam facility at NSCL" will be held all day Saturday, August 2, 2008 at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory at Michigan State University in East Lansing, MI. This is the Saturday immediately after NIC10. Free transportation will be provided from the NIC10 venue to East Lansing at the conclusion of the NIC10 meeting on Friday, August 1; and we will help arrange inexpensive transportation from East Lansing to Detroit Metro Airport for interested participants on Sunday, August 3.

The NSCL reaccelerated beam facility will provide high quality rare isotope beams at energies of 0.3 - 3 MeV/u. The beams are produced by fragmentation, followed by stopping in a gas filled device, and then reaccelerated in a RFQ superconducting LINAC combination. The facility will provide a very broad range of beams - all beams that can be produced with sufficient intensity by fragmentation can also be accelerated in this facility. First beam is expected in 2010.

The goals of the workshop are to:
- form a broad interest group of potential users;
- inform this group about the project and provide opportunities for community input during design, construction, and commissioning of the facility;
- discuss experiments and equipment;
- trigger the formation of collaborations that are interested in pursuing experiments at the facility.

The workshop is open to all interested scientists, and there is no registration fee for attending it. To register on-line for the workshop, please fill out and submit the registration. Housing information is posted at accommodations. If you have any questions, please contact Raman Anantaraman.

The workshop is being organized by:
Raman Anantaraman, MSU
Jeff Blackmon, Louisiana State University
Fernando Montes, MSU
Michael Wiescher, University of Notre Dame
Hendrik Schatz, MSU
