    The tests show exceptional stability

    Testing of the accelerator is proceeding successfully; operation is stable and in line with expectations. By the end of the week, the handover of operation to our team is planned, followed in the coming weeks by a transition to prototype mode with a gradual start of regular measurements. The official opening of the new accelerator is scheduled for the end of March during the Jožef Stefan Days.
