The University of Maryland electron ring (UMER) is a low-energy, high current recirculator for beam physics research with relevance to any applications that rely on intense beams of high quality. We review the space-charge physics issues, experimental and computational investigations, which are currently being conducted at the UMER facility. The physics issues cover a broad range, but we focus on transverse beam dynamics: halo formation, strongly asymmetric beams, Montague resonances, equipartitioning, etc. Furthermore, we report on recent developments in experiments, simulations, and improved diagnostics for space-charge dominated beams.
