The Cyclotron Institute at Texas A&M is currently configuring a scheme for the production of
radioactive-ion beams that incorporates a light-ion guide and a heavy-ion guide coupled with an
electron-cyclotron-resonance ion source constructed for charge-breeding. This scheme is part of an
upgrade to the facility and is intended to produce radioactive beams suitable for injection into the
K500 superconducting cyclotron. The current status of the project and details on the ion sources used
in the project is presented.
