Summary: | HIRFL-CSR is a multi-purpose cooler-storage-ring system constructed at the Institute of Modern Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences in Lanzhou, China. Construction of the HIRFL-CSR storage ring complex has been finished, and passed the government check and acceptance, recently. The first stored beam in the CSRm was obtained in January 2006 using stripping injection. The commissioning got great progress in 2007. In early January 2007 electron cooling in CSRm was successfully done, and the multiple multi-turn injection was successively realized for 12C6+, 36Ar18+ and 129Xe27+ beams, respectively. The 129Xe27+ beams was extracted from the main ring by fast extraction. The 660MeV/u 12C6+ was injected into the experimental ring and reached an intensity of 15mA there. The first two physics experiments were done in December 2007 including the mass measurement in isochronous mode in the experimental ring. The 300MeV/u 12C4+ ions were successfully slow-extracted from the main ring in early 2008. This paper presents the main commissioning results. |
