Abstract :
The IUCF (Indiana University Cyclotron Facility) Cooler is a synchrotron-storage ring with electron cooling. The construction was funded in 1983, with beam tests beginning in 1987. After a year to commissioning, the ring is beginning to provide beams for research users. The author reviews some of the recent accomplishments and summarizes some of the operating characteristics as presently understood. The IUCF Cooler is in transition to operational status with first experiments underway and an appreciable fraction of its large parameter space explored. There have been signs of good resolution, small emittance, good reproducibility, and easy energy variability
