Blackout accident A blackout occurred due to lightning on 31 August.
Summary ・The Single-Stage AMS was Installed to AORIinMarch2013. ・High throughput and high precision measurements have been achieved. ・We continue to develop software for better measurement. ・Three beamline alignments were performed, and the performance was greatly improved. ・The MBS power supply made by TREK was broken down due to a lightning strike. The machine stopped for about a month.
