The Heavy Ion Accelerator Research Institute at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) in Yuseong District, western Daejeon was visited by Minister of Science and ICT Lee Jong-ho on Monday. During his tour, he inspected the trial operation of the heavy ion accelerator and gathered opinions from experts at the institute regarding its construction, operation, and utilization.
The heavy ion accelerator at the IBS is a cutting-edge technology that can accelerate both hydrogen ions (protons) and heavier ions to nearly the speed of light for collision with target materials. This technology is essential for a wide range of scientific research projects and experiments.
Currently, performance checks are being conducted through trial operations that will run from June to August. These tests are aimed at ensuring that the accelerator is functioning properly and will provide valuable information for its future construction, operation, and utilization.
Minister Lee Jong-ho’s visit to the Heavy Ion Accelerator Research Institute at the IBS in Yuseong District was intended to gain a deeper understanding of the facility’s capabilities and potential for scientific advancement.
