The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) at Michigan State University provides a unique opportunity to access some of the nation's most specialized scientific resources: radioisotopes. An excess useful radioisotopes will be formed as FRIB fulfills its basic science mission providing rare isotope beams. In order beams reach high-purity, many isotopes are discarded and go unused. If harvested, unused could enable cutting-edge research diverse applications ranging from medical therapy...
The production of singly charged atomic and molecular ions with a new 2.45 GHz electron cyclotron resonance ion source has been studied. Mono 1000 uses magnetic confinement structure. elements Ne, Ar, Kr are ionized efficiencies close to 100%, while 45% achieved for He. In the case molecules SO2 SF6, more than 90% overall efficiency observed 40% sulfur atoms leaving under form S+. A total extracted yield 4×1012 fulleren (C60) per second also observed.
As beam power continues to increase in next-generation accelerator facilities, high-power target systems face crucial challenges. Components like windows and particle-production targets must endure significantly higher levels of particle fluence. The primary beam's energy deposition causes rapid heating (thermal shock) induces microstructural changes (radiation damage) within the material. These effects ultimately deteriorate components' properties lifespan. With conventional materials...
Novel beam-intercepting materials and targetry concepts are essential to improve the performance, reliability operation lifetimes of next generation multi-megawatt (multi-MW) accelerator target facilities. The components must sustain an order-of-magnitude increase in particle beam intensities beyond current state-of-the-art. With conventional already limiting scope experiments, it is crucial investigate novel materials, technologies that will satisfy requirements maximize physics benefits...
The upgrade of the “Système de Production d’Ions Radioactifs en Ligne” phase I (SPIRAL I) installed at “Grand Accélérateur National Lourds” (GANIL) situated Caen, France, is in progress and should be ready by 2014. In parallel, first part SPIRAL II facility currently under construction. global status presented: goal, radioactive ion production systems, modification cave impact current safety re-evaluation GANIL.
The next generation of high power targets will use more complex geometries, novel materials, and new concepts (like flowing granular materials); however, the current numerical approaches not be sufficient to converge towards a reliable target design that satisfies physical requirements. We discuss what can improved in 10 years modeling support (MW class) targets.
The SPIRAL2 project, currently under construction at GANIL, will include an isotope separator on line based facility for the production and acceleration of radioactive ion beams. A superconducting linear accelerator accelerate 5 mA deuterons up to 40 MeV 1 heavy ions 14.5 MeV/u. These primary beams be used bombard both thick thin targets. We are investigating three different techniques produce beams: (1) neutron induced fission uranium carbide, (2) direct interaction in a carbide target, (3)...
