Abstract :
The first acceleration test of a radioactive nuclear beam was performed in a radioactive beam facility at INS. The 19Ne beam was produced by bombarding a LiF target with 30 MeV protons from an SF cyclotron, and ionized by a ECR ion source. We succeeded to accelerate the 19Ne2+ ions to 0.72 MeV/u by heavy-ion linacs. The intensity delivered to a secondary target is not yet enough. Further improvements will be done to perform experiments using accelerated radioactive nuclei
