Abstract :
The results of the machine improvements, implemented (ECR source, new injector, and medium energy output) are presented. The measured characteristics of all the accelerated beams are summarized, featuring results obtained with metallic ions: /sup 40/Ca, /sup 48/Ca, /sup 58/Ni, /sup 64/Zn, /sup 157/Gd, /sup 238/U. Specific beams can be tuned for very short bunch length, parallel beam for channeling experiments, and special beam line focusing for secondary particles. Axial injection at 100 kV, high-intensity secondary beam production, and new operational facilities are described.<>
