Our aim is to operate and develop the ECR ion sources for the accelerator-complex system of the RI Beam Factory. We focus on further upgrading the performance of the RI Beam Factory through the design and fabricatin of a superconducting ECR heavy-ion source for production of high-intensity uranium ions.
