Abstract Gas stoppers have been used for a long-standing successful science program at Michigan State University with stopped and rare-isotope beams produced by projectile fragmentation. The National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory’s Coupled Cyclotron Facility has recently transitioned into the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) laboratory to provide rare isotopes using a high-power superconducting linear accelerator and new production facilities. To allow the science program with stopped and reaccelerated beams to continue during the transition period, a stand-alone capability was added. The Batch Mode Ion Source (BMIS) was built and has been providing beams of long-lived and stable isotopes of a variety of elements for successful user experiments. The BMIS system is described and results from the production of various beams are presented.
