The Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility (HRIBF) is now delivering beams of radioactive ions for nuclear physics experiments. The radioactive ions are produced using the Isotope-Separator-On-Line (ISOL) technique and then injected into a 25 MV tandem electrostatic accelerator and accelerated to energies of 0.1 - 10 MeV per nucleon for light nuclei and up to 5 MeV per nucleon for nuclei heavier than 100 amu. In the past year, the facility has provided almost 1200 hours of ~(17)F and ~(18)F beams for research with intensities up to 3xl0~6 ions/s on target. Also, the facility has provided beams of neutron-rich radioactive ions using proton-induced fission in a highly permeable uranium carbide target. The first such beam delivered to an experiment was ~(118)Ag with intensities up to 2x10~6 i ons/s on target. Details of the techniques used to produce these beams and other beam development projects will be discussed.
