Status report on the holifield heavy ion research facility
Abstract The Holifield Heavy Ion Research Facility has been in routine operation since July, 1982. Beams have been provided using both the tandem accelerator alone and a coupled mode in which the Oak Ridge Isochronous Cyclotron is used as an energy booster for tandem beams. The coupled mode has proved to be especially effective and has allowed us to provide a wide range of energetic beams for scheduled experiments. In this report we will discuss the status of the tandem accelerator and some aspects of our experience with coupled operation.

Initial operation of ORIC with tandem injection
Coupled operation of the 25 MV tandem and ORIC was achieved on January 27, 1981. The initial beam was 324 MeV /sup 16/O/sup 8 +/ followed shortly by oxygen at 400 MeV-the maximum design energy. Following additional installation and testing of the tandem, coupled operation for a nuclear physics experiment began in August. Performance of the system was in close agreement with that predicted from calculations.

Design Status of a Separated-Sector Cyclotron Booster Accelerator for the Holifield Heavy Ion Research Facility
A separated-sector cyclotron booster accelerator is being designed for the Holifield Heavy Ion Research Facility as a Phase II project to be started in 1978. Phase I of the HHIRF, now under construction, includes a 25 MV tandem electrostatic accelerator, a beam transport and injection system to enable use of the Oak Ridge Isochronous Cyclotron as an energy booster for tandem beams, and some additional experiment areas and associated beam transport systems. The Phase I facility using the ORIC-25 MV tandem combination will provide energies up to about 25 MeV/amu for light ions such as oxygen and more than 5 MeV/amu up to the region of mass 160. The new Phase II separated-sector cyclotron will provide energies up to 100 MeV/amu for light ions and up to 12 MeV/amu for the heaviest ions such as uranium.

Recent results on GPD/DVCS experiments at CLAS
Generalized Parton Distributions (GPDs) are the new powerful means to describe the nucleon. The related deeply exclusive experiments have started since the beginning of this century mainly the study of Deeply Virtual Scattering processes. Experiments running at Jefferson Laboratory, on the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer (CLAS) in Hall B, have used both polarized and unpolarized targets and beams. Data analysis is working out beam spin and target spin asymmetries as well as cross-sections. Recent results are presented and comparison with theory display the foreseen difficulties to be encountered when trying to extract the GPDs from the observables.
