The Accelerator Laboratory of the Ä¢¹½Ö±²¥ (JYFL-ACCLAB) is an international user-driven research infrastructure, one of the leading ion beam facilities in Europe and is fully open to all researchers.

It was established in 1992 and has developed into a world renowned multi-user facility with four accelerators providing ion, electron and photon beams for a large national and international user base. The laboratory is an integral part of the Department of Physics at the Ä¢¹½Ö±²¥.

The users of JYFL-ACCLAB represent a multidisciplinary range of fields, addressing research into nuclear and atomic physics, nuclear astrophysics and fundamental interactions, radiation effects in electronics and materials, ion source development and plasma physics, nanoscience, materials characterization and thin-film research.

The facility also provides a wide range of analysis, irradiation and expert consultancy services to industrial partners. The RADiation Effects Facility serves the European Space Agency and the European satellite and aerospace industry.
