Michigan State University will refurbish its history-making K500 cyclotron and install it as the heart of a new chip-testing facility for next-generation semiconductor devices at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams. The new facility will be what amounts to the third act for the K500, which made history on the nuclear science scene 40 years ago as the world’s first superconducting cyclotron.
