                               Description of Facility for Rare Isotope Beams in Support of Obtaining an
                                Experimental License from the Federal Communications Commission


                            The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) is being designed and established by
                            Michigan State University (MSU) as a U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science
                            (DOE-SC) national user facility supporting the mission of the Office of Nuclear
Thomas Glasmacher, PhD
 University Distinguished
                            Physics in DOE-SC. FRIB will be owned and operated by MSU in support of DOE-
                Professor   SC’s mission under the regulations applicable to MSU. MSU is a public research
     and Project Director   university located in East Lansing, Michigan, United States and is the first land-grant
                            institution that was created to serve as a model for future land-grant colleges in the
       Facility for         country under the 1862 Morrill Act. DOE-SC provides financial assistance to MSU
      Rare Isotope          to design and establish FRIB under Cooperative Agreement DE-SC0000661. DOE-
            Beams           SC provides oversight through its cognizant Federal Project Director, Mr. Ronald

                            FRIB will accelerate elements from hydrogen to uranium to over 200 MeV/nucleon
          517-908-7710      (about 50% of the speed of light) in a superconducting linear particle accelerator and
glasmacher@frib.msu.edu
                            create rare isotope beams through in-flight separation. These rare isotope beams will
                            enable scientists to make discoveries in nuclear physics, astrophysics, and in
                            applications of rare isotope beams for society.

                            Mr. Dan Morris, FRIB Deputy Electrical Engineering Department Manager,
                            (morrisd@frib.msu.edu, 517-908-7689) is the FRIB point of contact to the FCC in
                            this matter.
