The Advanced Rare Isotope Laboratory (ARIEL) is the most significant expansion project in the lab’s 50-year history, and will be among the few purpose-built multi-user rare isotope facilities in the world.
For unique insights into ARIEL’s construction explore Featured Media for time lapse segments and the debut commercial showcasing its concept to commissioning.
Some ARIEL quick facts include:
Funded by the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI), six provinces, and with the backing from 21 universities, the ARIEL facility will massively expand the rare isotope program by providing more exotic isotope species with very high intensities, allowing TRUIMF’s global community of researchers and students to more fully exploit the existing experimental facilities onsite.
It will be commissioned and operational in several phases between 2020-2026.
