The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) will be a world-leading, DOE Office of Science national user facility for the study of nuclear structure, reactions, and astrophysics on the campus of Michigan State University (MSU). A superconducting driver linac will be used to provide stable heavy-ion beams of >200 MeV/u at beam powers up to 400 kW to a production target. The stable beams will be used to produce rare isotopes by in flight fragment separation. The MSU-led design and construction effort is supported by collaborations with many National Laboratories and other scientific institutions. Systems Engineering and Integration has been implemented at the outset to ensure that a requirements-driven design process is followed, and to ensure intra and inter-system compatibility. Top-level requirements have been allocated, and subsequently elaborated, between the Accelerator Systems, Experimental Systems, and Conventional Facilities. FRIB has developed a number of methods and tools to track requirements, establish interfaces, monitor design progress, and ensure overall system integration. These will be described in the paper.

ReA is a radioactive ion beams post­accelerator currently being completed at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory at Michigan State University. ReA is designed to reaccelerate rare isotopes to energies of a few MeV/u following production by projectile fragmentation and thermalization in a gas cell. The facility consists of five main components: an electron­beam ion trap (EBIT) charge breeder, an achromatic charge ­over­ mass separator, a radio­frequency quadrupole accelerator, a superconducting radio­ frequency linear accelerator (SRF LINAC) and a transport line into the experimental hall. The first sections up to the SRF LINAC of ReA have been commissioned in the last two years using the off­line stable ion beam source and the heavy ion beams from the EBIT charge breeder. The final section, transporting beam from the LINAC into the experimental hall, will be completed and commissioned early this summer. This paper presents the results of the SRF cryo module characterization and the progress of the machine optics model.
