RI Research Instruments GmbH (RI), a majority-owned subsidiary
of Bruker Energy & Supercon Technologies, Inc. (BEST), today
announced the award of a major contract by the Turkish Accelerator

A primary goal of the TAC project is to establish the first
accelerator based infrared free electron laser (FEL) light source
facility in Turkey in order to improve access for Turkish
scientists to advanced scientific research infrastructure at the
Turkish Accelerator and Radiation Laboratory at Ankara (TARLA).
Dr. Michael Peiniger, Managing Director of RI Research
Instruments GmbH, explained: “These superconducting accelerating
modules will be based on our unique advanced technology. We expect
that their delivery will support the start-up of the TAC facility
in 2014 and will be the basis for a long-term partnership between
RI and the Turkish accelerator community.”
