The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) is a major new scientific user facility under construction in the United States for nuclear science research with beams of rare isotopes [1 A. Gade, C. K. Gelbke, and T. Glasmacher, Nucl. Phys. News 24 (2014) 28. [Google Scholar]]. FRIB is funded by the United States Department of Energy Office of Science (DOE-SC) and is located on the campus of Michigan State University (MSU), in East Lansing, Michigan, USA. FRIB will support the mission of the Office of Nuclear Physics in the DOE-SC. The total FRIB project cost is $730 million and the facility is scheduled to be completed by 2022. The project has passed the 75% complete mark and is managed toward early completion in 2021. FRIB is estimated to provide access to 80% off all isotopes of elements lighter than uranium.
