Research Frontiers 2022 Research Frontiers 2022 131 SPring-8 / SACLA Fig. 1 Fig. 2. Manpower at SPring-8: JASRI and RIKEN. When SPring-8 started operations in 1997, it was jointly managed by RIKEN, JAERI (now JAEA), and JASRI. However, JAEA withdrew from the management of SPring-8 on September 30, 2005. Currently, SPring-8 is collaboratively administered by RIKEN and JASRI. RIKEN established specific synchrotron radiation facilities (i.e., SPring-8 and SACLA) and is responsible for their operation and maintenance. JASRI selects and supports users of these facilities under the "Act on the Promotion of Public Utilization of the Specific Advanced Large Research Facilities." Figure 1 shows government subsidy. Figure 2 shows the manpower of JASRI and RIKEN.
