At the end of 1999, a first on-line RIB was accelerated, extracted and separated with the new cyclotron, CYCLONE44. An efficiency of 7% (from ion source exit to experiment target), resulting in 6 x 10(8) pps of Ne-19(3+), was obtained. Up to 9 kW of beam power has been put on the LiF target giving increased intensities for He-6, Ne-18 and O-15. A new accelerated and pure Be-7-beam of 2 x 107 pps has been produced, using the sputteting electrode in the ECR-source. Production tests of 140 using CYCLONE110 have started in view of their acceleration with CYCLONE44. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
