Abstract：
A new radioactive beam facility for ATLAS, the Californium Rare Ion Breeder Upgrade (CARIBU), is under construction. The facility will use fission fragments from a 1 Ci ²⁵²Cf source; thermalized and collected into a low-energy beam by a helium gas catcher. In order to reaccelerate these beams, the existing ATLAS ECR-I ion source is being redesigned to function as a charge breeder source. The design and features of this charge breeder configuration is discussed and the project status described.
